Answer 1

You're echoing outside of the loop. So it's only echoing the last row. Put that echo statement inside your while loop.

Answer 2

If you want to print all usernames, then the echo statement should be within the while loop, eg.

while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($sql_query_worth))
  {
    $dbusername = $row['username'];
    echo $dbusername;
  }

Answer 3

You are using this portion of code :

while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($sql_query_worth))
{
     $dbusername = $row['username'];
} 

echo $dbusername;

Which means only the name of the last user will be echoed :

• On each iteration of the loop, the username is stored in $dbusername
• But that variable's content is only echoed aftezr the loop
  • which means only the last value of $row['username'] will be echoed.

If you want to output each usename, you shoud put the echo inside the loop, and not after :

while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($sql_query_worth))
{
    $dbusername = $row['username'];
    echo $dbusername . '<br />';
} 

And, with that, each name of each user should be echoed ;-)
