     $result = mysql_query ("INSERT INTO article (title,full,short,time,cat) VALUES ('$title','$full','$short','$time','{$rescat['id']}')");

      You can do that.

        $result = mysql_query ("INSERT INTO article (title,full,short,time,cat) VALUES ('$title','$full','$short','$time','".$rescat["id"]."')");

        or even easier

          $result = mysql_query ("INSERT INTO article (title,full,short,time,cat) VALUES ('$title','$full','$short','$time','$rescat[id]')");

        You can skip quotes in arrays in arrays; this will not be an error and will read as it should Only if the variable is involved in the address of the array, then they rule your options)

          get used to writing correctly. - Artem

        Already quite a while I forced myself to always write in the format

         $result = mysql_query ("INSERT INTO article (title,full,short,time,cat) VALUES ('".$title."','".$full."','".$short."','".$time."','".$rescat['id']."')");

        I advise you too.
