You're getting an error, after the query, put:

echo mysql_error();

to find out what's happening.

After adding echo mysql_error(); I get the same result. I tried changing
the query to include 109fh7 (a table which doesn't exist) and got the same
result as with 109fh6. Changing to 109fh5 does pull up that table. The
line to which the error message refers is while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc
($data_set)) That is what always come up when there is an error in the
query.
