Two tables have a column called “title” and so row[‘title’] is ambiguous and just seems to pick one of the results at random (PHP/MYSQL).
Is there a way around this or do I have to make sure my columns are distinctly named even when they are in different tables?

EDIT :

$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result) ? $row['title'] is ambiguous. Thanks!
