Isn't there a known problem with variables and included files? Like you have to create $result in the first file, or something... Just try to have it all in one file... Also, change "mysql_fetch_row($result);" to "mysql_fetch_row($result) or print(mysql_error());"... Something also tells me you are using mysql_fetch_row... Why not array? You should try to just switch between them and try once... I didn't notice it at first... mysql_fetch_array($result) is what I would use... Will probably return same thing, but who knows?
