$result is an array that has to be fetched...try this
echo "<h3>active members should appear here</h3>";
$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM RegisteredMembers") or die("could not
execute query");
while($result = mysql_fetch_array($query)){
echo $result['YOUR_DB_FIELDNAME'];
}
change YOUR_DB_FIELDNAME' to whatever the fields are you are querying.
you could also:
<pre>
<?php print_r($result); ?>
</pre>
