Courses Plus Student 12,665 PointsPHP Mysql Select Query
<?php
include 'inc/db_connect.php';
$order="SELECT name, email, bitcoin, perfectmoney, egopay FROM persons WHERE id='id'";
$result=mysqli_query($con,$order);
if($result){
echo "success";
}else{
echo "failed";
}
$row = mysqli_fetch_array($result);
echo $row['name'];
?>
My code looks correct but i don't understand why its not echoing $row['name'];.

$row = mysqli_fetch_array($result);
echo $row[0];
