SQL: Query Not Working
For whatever reason, I cannot get this query to work:
<?php
$sql = "SELECT * FROM states ORDER BY state ASC";
$result = mysql_query($db_connect, $sql);
if (mysql_num_rows($result) > 0) {
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){
?>
<option value="<?php echo $row["state"]; ?>" ><?php echo $row["state"]; ?></option>
<?php
}
}
?>
</select>
Any ideas as to why?

Does the table exist? Is the connection working fine? Please remove ASC in your query.
