Is it possible the text you quoted isn't as it is in the script?
You've got too many open quotes and spaces between the value of
result['member_id' and the ending quote. That could be enough to
cause your problem. If correcting that doesn't work, post the whole
script (feel free to snip this whole followup to save space).

When you open an if block, you should close on a line by itself unless
the whole statement fits on one line.
$var = 1;
if ( 1 = $var ) { echo "oh yeah" } ;
would be acceptable but based on what you've posted
if ($field_name == "member_lname") {
echo "Something";
echo "something else";
...
}
Would be less sloppy.
Note the added spaces and indentation. While not required, good for
readability. You likely already know about commenting properly. :)
oh, and one more thing. Please don't top post. Quite annoying.
