print out some result

[adam291086]

I am trying to print out some database resutls as follows

cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM User")
        numrows_user = int(cursor.rowcount)
        i_user = int(0)
        Results_user = cursor.fetchall()


        
        while i_user < numrows_user:
           print Results_user[i_user]["ID"]

Put i am getting nothing i know i_user is working and i know there is information in the database if i do something like

print Results_user[0]["ID"]

i get info printed out. Why wont it work with the loop

[sillyboy]

what happens when you run the code? it "should" hit the while and continuously print (you have an infinite loop there). if you are not getting into a infinite loop, numrows_user is probably not set to what you expect.

its not an infinite loop as numrows_user is part of a database search earlier on and when i print it out it = 4.

Whats supposed to happen when i run the code is the 4 ID from a data base table is printed out. This is the whole code i am trying to run

#drop down boxes
        #execute SQL select statement
        cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM User")
        numrows_user = int(cursor.rowcount)
        i_user = 0
        Results_user = cursor.fetchall()


        
        while i_user < numrows_user:
            for element in Results_user[i_user].keys():
                if element == "UserName":
                    if Results_user[i_user][element] != Results[i][subelement]:
                        print "<option value=\""+Results_user[i_user][element]+"\">"+Results_user[i_user][element]+"</option>"
                        i_user = i_user + 1
                    else:
                        i_user = i_user + 1
                        continue
                else:
                    continue
        print "</select>"
        print "<br />"

The above code actually works but i need to change Results_user[i_user][element] to Results_user[i_user]["ID"] and thats when i get nothing

when i try and print out Results_user[i_user][element] it works but when i specify element i get nothing. But if i do Results_user[0]["ID"] i get the one result printed out.

ok i have re writtent the code and its now working but the code is sloppy and there must be a better way of doing this

any ideas?
