title: How to retrive only one cell from MySQL table with PHP
body: <p>I'm trying to create a forgotten password form that emails users their password. I'm having a problem, though, with the actual password part. You see, I have the email and comparing the email correct, except whenever I send the email I always get either "Your password is ." or "Your password is Array". I'm using: </p>
  
  <pre><code>$check_email = mysql_num_rows(mysql_query("SELECT email FROM userRecovery WHERE email = '$to'"));
  if($check_email == 1){
  
  $qtip = mysql_query("SELECT password FROM userRecovery WHERE email = '$to'");
  $theirPassword = mysql_fetch_array($qtip);
  Rest of the Code...
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I used to be able to do this correctly, but I haven't done PHP or MySQL in too long so it's slightly annoying (that, and I'm at a beginner-intermediate kind of level). I remember having this exact problem, but I don't have the code with me to find out what I did. If you think I left out a detail, please say so.</p>
  
  <p>Any help if appreciated.</p>
