    Default Just a quick PHP question....

    Hey,

    How would I go about adding the values of a field fetched from a database?

    Example:

    I fetch all `total` fields from a table so I have:

    450
    560
    ect...

    How would I add every value together?

    450+560

    I want to be able to add the values together as I know they will be numeric.

    Thanks.

    Lew.

    I got it working

    Needed to do this:


    PHP Code:
    $carTotalyone mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("SELECT SUM(totalCost) AS 'totalC' FROM totals WHERE carID=$ided AND totalYear=1"));

    echo 
    $carTotalyone['totalC'];
