IMPLODE ARRAY

[seidel]

I am trying to inplode an array for query use

**************this is the code************

$temp_links_query=mssql_query("SELECT*
FROM test_final_link_doc
WHERE document_number = '$document_number'
");
$counter2=0;
while($row_2=mssql_fetch_array($temp_links_query))
{
$link[$counter2]=$row_2["link_doc"];
$counter++;
}

		$new_array = array($link);

		$link_doc_string = implode("," ,$new_array);

		echo $link_doc_string;

		echo "<select name=\"add_link[]\" multiple size=\"10\" maxlength=\"100\">";
		$find_add_link_doc=mssql_query("SELECT document_number
		 								FROM final_main
		 								WHERE document_number NOT IN ('$link_doc_string')
		 								");

for some reason when I echo the imploded string it is stil lan array not a string, what am I doing wrong?

thanks

when you do:
<snip>
$new_array = array($link);

$link_doc_string = implode("," ,$new_array);
</snip>

you are actually making $new_array a 2 dimensional array 1 one array element at the [0]th position.

change it to:
$link_doc_string = implode(",", $new_array);
