SQL AVG Results Help

I'm new at this and am having problems displaying the results of my AVG SQL query. When I check the database directly, I am getting the correct answer from avg_submit. When I try to display avg_submit using php, the browser displays: "Resource id #2" instead of the integer. I'm sure it's probably an easy problem to solve but I dont' know php well enough to figure it out and I can't find it in my book. Any help would be very appreciated.

print "Results: <br>";
$sql = 'SELECT AVG( answer ) AS avg_submit
FROM `int_response_table`
WHERE question_id = '3' AND survey_id = '3'';


$result = mysql_query($sql, $conn) or die(mysql_error());
print $result;

rather than trying to print out $result, you need to fetch your result from $result. You see, $result is just a 'pointer' to your results from the database. Try using the following after the code you supplied:

Thank you very much! I'll give it a try

Using the code you supplied, there's now nothing showing on the screen. Is there something else I need to do with my database?

Are you still using the code you supplied in the first post?

Yes, this is what the code looks like now:
print "Results: <br>";
$sql = 'SELECT AVG( answer ) AS avg_submit FROM `int_response_table` WHERE question_id = '3' AND survey_id = '3'';


$result = mysql_query($sql, $conn) or die(mysql_error());
$row = mysql_fetch_row($result);
echo $row['avg_submit'];

My bad...change:

$row = mysql_fetch_row($result);

to:

$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);

Yeah!! It works. Thanks again.
