You tried to print your result object. Instead do this: $query = "select count(*) as num from $tablename"; $result=mysql_query($query); $obj=mysql_fetch_object($result); $count=$obj->num; print $count; Chris --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
