MySQL - Issue with SELECT & GROUP BY [SOLVED]

Ah right, I see what's happened here, I thought I copied your original statement, basically it always uses tags_name as string... just pop off the quotes and it should work hopefully. Also you can add AS to name it nicer

PHP Code:

$this->db->select("pages.*,GROUP_CONCAT(tags_name) AS alltags");
...
echo $row->alltags; // instead of $row->{"GROUP_CONCAT('tags_name')"}
