Felix:
Depending on what you're trying to do try either of these:
//Check to see if $color is in DB:
$connection = mysql_connect("localhost","user","pass") or die("Died at
connection.");
$sql = "SELECT * FROM user_prefs WHERE u_id='$UserID'";
$result = mysql_db_query($sql, $connection) or die("Died at query.");
$color = mysql_num_rows($result);
//If query didn't die, check to see if there is a result for this query:
if($color != 0) {
echo "<table bgcolor=\".$color['color_1'].\" class=\"nav\">";
}
else{
echo "Some error message.";
}
//Print $color to page:
$connection = mysql_connect("localhost","user","pass") or die("Died at
connection.");
$sql = "SELECT * FROM user_prefs WHERE u_id='$UserID'";
$result = mysql_db_query($sql, $connection) or die("Died at query.");
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
$color = $row['color_1'];
echo "<table bgcolor=\"$color\" class=\"nav\">";
}
Try that little pup on for size...
