I wonder in that case what my problem is...
I issue the following query in phpMyAdmin:
PHP Code:
SELECT venue, SUM( amount )
FROM IWD
WHERE venue = 'Foxy Hollow'
And get this result:
venue SUM(amount)
NULL NULL
If I take away the single quotes, I get an error:
PHP Code:
#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'Hollow' at line 1
SELECT venue, SUM( amount )
FROM IWD
WHERE venue = Foxy Hollow
If I have entries without spaces (for example FoxyHollow) the query works like a charm..
I guess I could convert the names to replace blanks with underscores.. but I'd rather not. :/
Edit: Damn it, id Didn't work.. but, now I really don't understant this.. it worked yesterday.. I HAVE made some changes somewhere, dut damn me if I could remember what.. there IS something wrong with the query.. my apologies... now.. I just need to find out WHAT is wrong with my query.. :/

LEARN ABOUT PHP
mssql_fetch_array
MSSQL_FETCH_ARRAY(3) MSSQL_FETCH_ARRAY(3)
mssql_fetch_array - Fetch a result row as an associative array, a numeric array, or both
SYNOPSIS
array mssql_fetch_array (resource $result, [int $result_type = MSSQL_BOTH])
DESCRIPTION
mssql_fetch_array(3) is an extended version of mssql_fetch_row(3). In addition to storing the data in the numeric indices of the result
array, it also stores the data in associative indices, using the field names as keys.
An important thing to note is that using mssql_fetch_array(3) is NOT significantly slower than using mssql_fetch_row(3), while it provides
a significant added value.
PARAMETERS
o $result
- The result resource that is being evaluated. This result comes from a call to mssql_query(3).
o $result_type
- The type of array that is to be fetched. It's a constant and can take the following values: MSSQL_ASSOC, MSSQL_NUM, and
MSSQL_BOTH.
RETURN VALUES
Returns an array that corresponds to the fetched row, or FALSE if there are no more rows.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
mssql_fetch_array(3) example
<?php
// Send a select query to MSSQL
$query = mssql_query('SELECT [username], [name] FROM [php].[dbo].[userlist]');
// Check if there were any records
if (!mssql_num_rows($query)) {
echo 'No records found';
} else {
// The following is equal to the code below:
//
// while ($row = mssql_fetch_row($query)) {
while ($row = mssql_fetch_array($query, MSSQL_NUM)) {
// ...
}
}
// Free the query result
mssql_free_result($query);
?>
NOTES
Note
Field names returned by this function are case-sensitive.
Note
This function sets NULL fields to the PHP NULL value.
