When I started writing this script it sounded pretty simple but I've run into a few problems.  The script some information from a database and then a loop is used to put the information into variables.  What I want is for each time the loop is run it outputs different variables so that these variables can then be used later on in the script. 

 

So for example at the moment each time it goes around a different value is assigned to $data1 etc but I want it to create a new variable to put the data into instead of just writing over the old one.

 

$querydata = "SELECT * FROM tblgraphdata WHERE graphID ='1'";

 

$resultsdata = mysql_query($querydata) or die ("Problem with query:" . mysql_error());

 

$rowsdata = mysql_num_rows($resultsdata);

 

$i = 0;

 

while ($i < $rowsdata){

 

$data1 = mysql_result($resultsdata, $i, "data1");

$data2 = mysql_result($resultsdata, $i, "data2");

$data3 = mysql_result($resultsdata, $i, "data3");

$data4 = mysql_result($resultsdata, $i, "data4");

$color = mysql_result($resultsdata, $i, "color");

$i ++;

 

}

 

Any ideas?

 

Thank you soo much for helping!

You'll find it easier if you use mysql_fetch_assoc rather than mysql_result:

$querydata = "SELECT data1, data2, data3, data4, color FROM tblgraphdata WHERE graphID ='1'";
$resultsdata = mysql_query($querydata) or die ("Problem with query:" . mysql_error());


while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($resultsdata))
{
    $rowdata[] = $row; // add returned results from $row intop $rowdata array.
}

echo '<pre>' . print_r($rowdata, true) . '</pre>';
