Mysql select only two items from table

Question

I want to select only two items from table, not with * and row and etc...

I tried this, but its not working:

    $query = mysql_query("SELECT id, email FROM users WHERE nev = '$nev' LIMIT 1") or die (mysql_error());
    $id = mysql_result($query, 0);
    $email = mysql_result($query, 1); 

Any idea?

Answer 1

according to mysql_result documentation

the parameters can be described like this mysql_result ($result, $row , $field) You look for the 1st and 2nd row of an undefined field , which means 1st field of your select (id) when i suppose you look for the 1st row (and only since you have put LIMIt 1) of the 1st and 2nd field (id, email that you selected)

$id =mysql_result($query , 0 , 0 )
$email = mysql_result($query , 0, 1 )
