Hi Chris, You need to use a while loop to fetch all of the records returned in the SELECT statement in PHP, as follows: <?php $db = mysql_connect("host", "user", "pwd"); mysql_select_db("dbname",$db); $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM NAMES_TBL",$db); while ($row = mysql_fetch_array ($result)) { printf("DBID: %s<br>\n", $row["DBID"]; printf("First Name: %s<br>\n",$row["FIRST_NAME"]; printf("Last Name: %s<br>\n", $row["LAST_NAME"]; } ?>
