Can somebody tell me why this query string has nothing in it?

$query = “SELECT wkusers.uid, wkusers.name, alertuserstogroups.alertgroupuid FROM wkusers LEFT JOIN alertuserstogroups ON wkusers.uid = alertuserstogroups.useruid”;  
$result = mysql\_result($query);

while($row = mysql\_fetch\_array($result)) {  
echo “blah”;  
}

My thoughts were that there was something wrong with the php interpreter and the periods in the query.

Anybody have any thoughts regarding this?

This is a valid query and we have connection to database.
