I have been running over the code time and time again, and I cannot seem to find the culprit. The other topic_title variable comes up fine, but the others post_title, post_text do not. I have tried many things and they are still not showing up on the page...
I appreciate any help with this!
I figure the problem to be in this segment of code but I am not sure and have also included the entire code for perusal.
// Gather the posts
$get_posts = "select post_text, post_id, date_format(post_create_time, '%b %e %Y at %r')
as fmt_post_create_time, post_owner from Faq_Posts where topic_id = $_GET[topic_id] order by post_create_time asc";
$get_posts_res = mysql_query($get_posts,$conn) or die(mysql_error());
// Create the display string
$display_block = "<p>Showing answer to the <b>$topic_title</b> topic:</p>
<table width=\"100%\" cellpadding=3 cellspacing=1 border=0><tr><th>Author</th><th>Post</th></tr>";
while($posts_info = mysql_fetch_array($get_posts_res)){
$post_id = $posts_info['post_id'];
$post_text = nl2br(stripslashes($posts_info['post_text']));
$post_create_time = $posts_info['fmt_post_create_time'];
$post_owner = stripslashes($posts_info['post_owner']);
