Question

I have a BOOLEAN in my table, set to 0 or 1.

$test = mysql_query("SELECT status FROM mydb WHERE email = '[e-mail]'") or die(mysql_error());

if ($test == 0) { 
    echo "FF";
} elseif ($test == 1) { 
    echo "ON";
}

But this doesn’t work, why? I tried true and false, that doesn´t work either.

You are not actually fetching the result.

$test = mysql_query("SELECT status FROM mydb WHERE email = '[e-mail]'");
if (!$test) {
    die(mysql_error());
} else {
    $res = $test;
}
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res);

var_dump($row);
