Not sure why, but this is returning the wrong value. I WAS getting this resource ID #12 back, instead of the Number value '1' which I am seeking..

the code which did this was: 

```
$type = "SELECT account_type from user_attribs WHERE username = '$username'";
$usertype= mysql_query($type);

```

so I changed that to this:

```
$type = "SELECT account_type from user_attribs WHERE username = '$username'";
$type_again = mysql_query($type);
$usertype = mysql_fetch_row($type_again);

```

Now it just gives me the word array. I am completely lost on this. Help?!

EDIT:: 

The current code being used is : 

```
  $username= 'lmfsthefounder';
  $type = "SELECT account_type from user_attribs WHERE username='lmfsthefounder';";
  $type_again = mysql_query($type);
  $row = mysql_fetch_row($type_again);
  $usertype = $row['account_type'];
  echo $usertype;

```

which returns like this: Home Login Register Usertype is

(This should display 'Usertype is 1' in my navigation bar)
