No error but...

Question

i have this form that i created following this book.
everything was going fine until now.
this is the page :
Text
As everyone can see, when clicking "View Urls" it suppose to
show the list of categories in the drop down menu saved in my url
table. but it doesn't.
i checked and rechecked the add_url.php and view_urls.php and
i dont see no mistakes at all. I check my database and all url
added are listed in the urls table.
This is my view_urls.php code.
I realize that is a big script, i do apologise for that, but
if someone could have a quick look, maybe there's something that i
havent been able to find.
I thank you everyone so much,
My code: :
<?php # Script 12.6 - view_urls.php
// This page displays the URLs listed in the database.
// Set the page title and include the HTML header.
$page_title = 'View URLs';
include ('./includes/header.html');
require_once ('mysql_connect.php'); // Connect to the
database.
// Create a form allowing the user to select a URL category
to view.
echo '<div align="center">
<form method="get" action="view_urls.php">
<select name="type">
<option value="NULL">Choose a Category:</option>
// Retrieve and display the available categories.
$query = 'SELECT * FROM url_categories ORBER BY category
ASC';
$result = mysql_query ($query);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array ($result, MYSQL_NUM)) {
echo "<option value=\"$row[0]\">$row[1]</option>
// Complete the form.
echo '</select>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Go!">
</form>
</div>
// Retrieve the URLs for a particular category, if selected.
// Make sure the type is an integer.
if (isset($_GET['type'])) {
$type = (int) $_GET['type'];
} else {
$type = 0;
if ($type > 0) {
// Get the current type name.
$query = "SELECT category FROM url_categories WHERE
url_category_id=$type";
$result = mysql_query ($query);
list ($category) = mysql_fetch_array ($result, MYSQL_NUM);
echo "<hr /><div
align=\"center\"><b>$category Links</b><br />
<small>(All links will open in their own window.
Recently added links are listed
first.)</small></div>\n";
$first = TRUE; // Initialize the variable.
// Query the database.
$query = "SELECT u.url_id, url, title, description FROM urls
AS u, url_associations AS ua WHERE u.url_id = ua.url_id AND
ua.url_category_id=$type AND ua.approved = 'Y' ORDER BY
date_submitted DESC";
$result = mysql_query ($query);
// Display all the URLs.
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array ($result, MYSQL_ASSOC)) {
// If this is the first record, create the table border.
if($first) {
echo '<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="3"
cellpadding="3" align="center">
<tr>
<td align="right" width="40%"><font
size="+1">Link</font></td>
<td align="left" width="50%"><font
size="+1">Description</font></td>
<td align="center" width="10%"> </td>
</tr>';
$first = FALSE; // One record has been returned.
} // End of $first IF.
// Display each record.
echo " <tr>
<td align=\"right\"><a href=\"
http://{$row['url'
target=\"_new\">{$row['title']}</a></td>
<td align=\"left\">{$row['description']}</td>
<td align=\"center\"><a
href=\"edit_url.php?uid={$row['url_id']}\">edit</a></td>
</tr>\n";
} // End of while loop.
// If no records were displayed...
if ($first) {
echo '<div align="center">There are currently no links
in this category.</div>';
} else {
echo '</table>'; // Close the table.
} // End of $_GET['type'] conditional.
mysql_close(); // Close the database connection.
include ('./includes/footer.html');
?>

Nobody can see your PHP there, Luis.
