I have an array that gets info froma database. When i var_dump it i get
| Code: |
object(stdClass)(6) { ["pkgname"]=> string(11) "sys-libs/db" ...
|
however when I var_dump $a_row[pkgname], i get NULL. Why is this?
---
How can i easily convert data storeed in the db w/ \n to define a new line to HTML with <br> to define a newline?

you could use the nl2br function:

one more (in addition to the array question above)
when i use
| Code: | | if(mysql_fetch_array($result)) |
to see if a row exists, the script dies if it does(says $result doens't hold a valid recordset). All i want is for it to return true if it finds one and false if it doesn't. Is there a different way to do this? I'm just checking to make sure they're no dupes.
