[thelist] PHP help with a loop and array

try changing 'echo $picresult[$i]' to 'echo $picresult[0]'

Since you are only returning one thing from your query, only the first element of
the array is going to contain any data.  After $i>0, you are trying to display
blank array fields.

If you are trying to put all results into the $picresult array, try
$picresult[$i] = mysql_fetch_array($picsql);
or
array_push($picresult, mysql_fetch_array($picsql));
