Hey thanks for the reply,

the group lives!!!

I did that and still nothing. I am using codeigniter and I would like
to paste the code incase it sheds more light and maybe a solution?
thanks here it is:

MODEL-
function displayby_name($name) { $this->db->select
("articletitle,articlebody,articleauthor"); $this->db->from
('articles'); $this->db->where('articletitle',$name); $Q = $this->db-
>get(); if($Q->num_rows() > 0){ $text = $Q->result_array(); } echo
$this->db->last_query(); return $text; }

CONTROLLER-
function readarticle() { $articlename = $this->input->post('active');
$output = $this->articles->displayby_name($articlename);

        if($output){
                $data['article'] = $output;
        }
        $this->load->view('loadarticle',$data);
    }
thanks for the help
