Die beiden Funktionen stehen in einer PHP-Datei.

function get_data($sql, &$result)
{
   $cnn = odbc_connect ("hupr1", "root", "");
   if (!$cnn)
	    {
		 return "Database connection failed!";
		}
	 else
	    {
         $result = odbc_exec($cnn, $sql);
		 if (!$result)
			{return "Wrong SQL statement!";}
		 else
		    {
		     if (odbc_fetch_row($result, 1) == true)
		        {
		         return -1;
		        }
		     else
		        {
		         return "No data";
		        }
		    }
		}
}

/*--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- */
function field_value(&$value, $result, $i, $field)
{
   if (odbc_fetch_row($result, $i) == true)
	    {
		 $value=odbc_result($result, $field);
		 return true;
		}
	 else
	    {
		 $value="";
		 return false;
		}
}

In der PHP-Datei, die den Text ausgeben soll steht dann dieser Auszug:
Das Feld um das es geht ist: article_cDescription.

$sqlArticle = "SELECT * FROM article WHERE (volume_nID = ".$volume_nID.") AND (category_nID = ".$category_nID.")";
if (get_data($sqlArticle, $resultArticle) == -1)
{ 
		$j = 1;
		while (field_value($article_nID, $resultArticle, $j, "article_nID") <> false)
		{
			field_value($article_cTitle, $resultArticle, $j, "article_cTitle");
			field_value($category_nID, $resultArticle, $j, "category_nID");
			field_value($article_cDescription, $resultArticle, $j, "article_cDescription");
			$j++;
		}//END WHILE FOR article
		$i++;
	} //END IF
						
<div class="Scrollbox" style="width:100%; height:360px;">
	<b><?php echo category_cDescription; ?><br><br>
	<?php echo $article_cTitle; ?></b><br><br>
	<?php echo str_replace(chr(13), "<br>", $article_cDescription); ?>
