spent the whole day, but fixed for anyone whos got a similar problem

PHP Code:
<?php

include("dbconnect.php");

$prod = $_GET['prod'];
//$view = $_GET['view'];
if ($view==null){$view='A';};

$query0 = "SELECT * FROM products WHERE productID='$prod'";
$result0 = mysql_query($query0) or die (mysql_error());
$row0 = mysql_fetch_array($result0);

$item = $row0['itemName'];
//$newid = $row0['id'];
$fabricName = $row0['fabricName'];
$str3 = ($row0['productID']);
$str6 = ($row0['productID']);
$three = substr($prod, 0, 3);
?>
