Using PHP to read strings from a MySQL db

[melefire]

So, in my latest project I have decided to save all of the visible text a "strings" in a table in my database. The database structure is as follows:

+----+------+-----------------------------+------------+
| id | name | default_value               | cust_value |
+----+------+-----------------------------+------------+
|  1 | str1 | This is a demo string       |            |
|  2 | str2 | This is another demo string |            |
+----+------+-----------------------------+------------+

So I got the contents of the table called 'strings' like this:

$strings = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `strings`;");

but after that I am unsure as to how I would go about placeing these strings in my code.

Can anyone help?
thanks

See the example on the [man]mysql_fetch_assoc/man page.

I have read the example and still can't do what I need to. I create a array of all the values in the table, but I just want to get one entry into a variable.
