Thank you. Changing it to:
$max_esn = mysql_result($max_esn_result,$i);
did the trick.

Subject: RE: Why is this query not working?
I am running php 4.2.2 and mysql 3.23.54.
This is a PHP question, not mySQL.
This is my query:
$sql = SELECT MAX(esn) FROM address; // line 37
$max_esn_result = mysql_query($sql) or print mysql_error(); // line
38
$max_esn = mysql_result($max_esn_result,$i,esn); // line 39
What is the value of $i? Are you sure you want to jump to row $i of your
result set?
This is the error I get:
esn not found in MySQL result index 5 in
/var/www/html/address_entry.php on line 39
I think since you are selecting MAX(esn) is doesn't get returned as esn, it
gets returned as MAX(esn), I could be wrong. A simple fix would be to get
rid of the third argument you are passing to mysql_result since your query
is only returning one field you do not need an offset or name. Or you can
change the query to SELECT MAX(esn) as max_esn FROM address; and then use
max_esn as your offset/fieldname.
