browsing the sql database

[sohummisra]

hello....I've been racking my brains over this minute problem -- probably because I started programming php today!! Well I'm getting along well -- I've added all the required information into the database and it works. I can even view the informatino.

The problem lies in browsing through this database. Basically, I'm going to reference all links in my website to a php page, using an ID as a get variable. so it will be something like ....page.php?id=3, depending on the ID of the page. Pretty simple, huh?

What I want to do is the PHP in the page then goes to that ID (primary key) in the database and pulls out hte required information (page text and page title). Is there anyway to incorporate this in an array form because apart from this I have no idea how to do this!

Any help appreciated

well i've made progress since....

i still have a new problem though....i need to concatenate something when searching for hte result row. Is this valid (especially the syntax)?

$result = @mysql_query('SELECT * FROM page WHERE ID=' . $pageID);

It gives me an error whereas the thing works if I elminiate . $pageID and instead put an integer ID at the end of the SELECT statement.
