从MySQL数据库中获取数组

Question

I am trying to make a page for re-sending the activation mail to the a members of my site who have not received it. I'm not able to fetch the required data from mysql . This is what I have tried -

$act = mysql_query("SELECT activate FROM users WHERE email='$mail'");

where users is the table name, activate is the column name from which data is to be fetched. The email address of which the code is to be fetched is stored in $mail and email is a column name in the table.

I want to fetch the data from the column activate and row which is same as the row in which the value of email column is same as the value in $email .

This is the output I am currently getting - Resource id #11

While the correct output must be something like - 55445513

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Answer 1

Use this:

$act = mysql_query("SELECT activate FROM users WHERE email='$mail'");
$act_array = mysql_fetch_array($act);

You can then reference $act_array for your array element results.
