Have you checked that your query does indeed return results?

$result as defined in your code (see manual on mysql_query() for full 
details) will be FALSE if your query does not get executed correctly. If 
your query executes correctly $result will contain a link identifier. 
However that doesn't necessarily mean that your query returned any 
*results*.

Insert some echos in your while loop to see whether you have any results.
