Found it! It was a typo with a missing { from way earlier in the script. Thanks. I'll probably be back again as I try to figure this all out.

I think "class" is okay for a column name but I'm not positive. It's wierd that it showed as green in my code above, but it isn't listed on the mySQL website as being reserved. I also think it's okay because I accessed the same data with no problems using the first example (on the page I was learning from).

But I gave your suggestion a try and reverted all of those named columns to numbers starting at zero, and it instead gave me the parse error message "unexpected '}'" on line 23. (That's the line above "else {" )

As usual, the more I try the more I get more confused.

I'm not a PHP expert but maybe "class" is a reserved word to the language that you can't use as a variable or column name.
