Message: Resource id#3

[gerrydewar]

I'm making a simple query to my database and receiving a code:Resource id#3 as my output. Does anyone know what this means?

I've tried to post the code i'm using but i keep getting the following error when my code is included in this thread:

Not Acceptable
An appropriate representation of the requested resource /forums/index.php could not be found on this server.

You are probably doing (can't post any code :-( )

$rs = mysql query ("string")

echo $rs;

You need to fetch the rows after the query.

I was doing what you said i was so i added the following:

while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result,MYSQL_ASSOC)){
echo $row;
}


Now i get the word 'Array' as my output.

Fixed it. Just took out the MYSQL_ASSOC from the while loop and it worked. Thanks to Ken and Barand for posting that nice tutorial on the other thread.
