Question

I have this code.

 <?php
        require('connection/conn.php');
        mysql_select_db($db_name,$ligação);
        //$rsArticle = mysql_query("CALL get_article(1,518)");
        $rsArticle = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM tblarticles WHERE ArticleID = 518");
        while($rowArticle = mysql_fetch_array($rsArticle)){
            echo $rowArticle;
        }
    ?>

And instead of getting the text that exists in the database I just get the word: Array

The line that is commented its for calling a stored procedure. In a desperate measure I made a simple select, in the next line

Can anyone explain me what I’m doing wrong??

Thanks

Answer 1

The reason that you are getting the word Array is because what you are echoing is an Array. Use something like echo $rowArticle[‘column-name’]; to echo the data from a specific column of your query.
