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?

Are you getting any error?
Hi,
Does the table exist? Is the connection working fine? Please remove ASC in your query.

Apparently, for whatever reason the query doesn't work on my computer at home. I have an old MacBook Pro ---like 11 years old, which is running an older version of PHP. However, once I upload my scripts from my older machine to a newer machine and use mysqli, the script works as is. So, no worries. Thanks everyone for their assistance.
I would love to have an old MacBook Pro!
