The results are set by a variable (i.e $type = “pvt” , “com”, or “org”). I am coding results from mysql to the LIST() function, I can not figure out how to construct a variable name within the list function. I was able to work it out in the mysql query… This works [code]$sql = "SELECT ".$type."_auto, name_auto, ... FROM ".$db_prefix."rates ... [/code] However, in the list function it does not work as, [code]list( '$'.$type.'_auto'., $name_auto ... ) = mysql_fetch_array($rs); [/code] The variable name needs to be… $com_auto in this case, but it could be $pvt_auto or $org_auto depending on the value of $type. I have been stuck for awhile on this, maybe it can not be done this way using LIST to set the results from the database to be available as variables in the standard manner? Thanks for any help here!
