Thread: php datbases and urls

i have a mysql database written in php4.

i cna add, modify list etc very nicely. I have 4 feilds in the db and can search and display all the results. howver, in my last feild, i want to display a link to whatever is in the feild.

currently, i'm using an <a href> statement. i will link, but the script displays the row number. how do i get it to display what ever is in the db, and link to it?

if anyone can help, i'd be much appreciated.

thanks in advance

fixed it! it was late, and i was sober so i missed the most obviouse thing!

anyway, got it working! so i'm happy! updated the database fully now!

ps: the code that i fixed look slike this....

while (($row = mysql_fetch_object($result))){

printf("<TR valign=\"top\">
<TD valign=\"top\"><font face=arial size=2>%s</font></TD>
<TD valign=\"top\"><font face=arial size=2>%s</font></TD>
<TD valign=\"top\"><font face=arial size=2>%s</font></TD>
<TD valign=\"top\"><font face=arial size=2><a href=\"$row->EXTRA\" target=\"_blank\">%s</a></font></TD>

</TR>\n",
$row->ACCRONYM, $row->DEFINITION, $row->DESCRIPTION, $row->EXTRA,
$row->ROWID, $row->ROWID) ;
}

the %s comes from the string in the table feild.
