Ok, so what im trying to make is an authentication system that gives the user the pin. I have all currently generated pins setup in a mysql database that looks like this..

So now i need to display them, and then after its displayed on the page, i want it either removed from the database or the used variable changed to 0
Here is my php script for this so far...
<?php
// Echo random
$username="bryan_pin"; //enter your database username
$password="imsa1135"; //enter your db password
$database="bryan_pin"; //enter the name of your database
mysql_connect(localhost,$username,$password);
@mysql_select_db($database) or die( "Unable to select database");
$query= "SELECT * FROM pins WHERE used > 0 ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 1";
$result=mysql_query($query);
$num=mysql_num_rows($result);
mysql_close();
$i=0; //declares that i has a value of zero 0
while ($i < $num) {
$Pin=mysql_result($result,$i,"pin");
echo"$Pin";
$i++;
};
?>
Any help is apriciated! Also, the random row selection is working - http://bryansblog.co.cc/test_random.php
