if i do this:
/*all the mysql login stuff here*/

$query=mysql_query("select * from members");
while($new=mysql_fetch_array($query)){
echo "$new['company']";
/*so on through the field list*/
}
on output all i get is the title with a submit button..otherwise blank..

same thing with fetch_object()...and i have 1 row in the members table..im
sort of confused now that it doesnt work for a wierd reason

any better ideas on how to get the stuff out of the table and into vars?
maybe im doing it wrong
