php4.0.4 and Interbase - fetching records across files

I'm trying to fetch multiple records, one at a time (like I have done with MySQL and PostgreSQL) by storing the result set id to a session id. Then I recall the same php file using a Next Button and get the next record from the result set. Interbase doesn't like this at all. It stores a 0 to the result set session variable - it's like it disconnects after one fetch! Here is a bit of code to illustrate: if ($site != "Next") { $sql="SELECT * FROM COMPANY_SITES LEFT JOIN COMPANIES ON COMPANY_SITES.CMP_AUTO_KEY = COMPANIES.CMP_AUTO_KEY WHERE COMPANIES.CV_UDF_013='".$pass."' ORDER BY SITE_DESCRIPTION"; $conn = ibase_connect ($host, $user, $pwd, 'ISO8859_1', 100, 1); $qry = ibase_prepare ($conn, $sql); $rslt = ibase_execute ($qry); <- Result id#3 is the value of $rslt here $rcd = ibase_fetch_object ($rslt); } else { $rcd = ibase_fetch_object ($rslt); } <- zero (0) is the value of $rslt here after one fetch! Here is the Button: <form action='cssite.php' name='Track'> <p><input type="submit" name="site" value="Next"> </form> The first time the .php file is called, it processes the whole connection. Each time thereafter, it should just do a fetch based on the stored $rslt value (stored in the usual session variable way). Does anyone know of a 'correct' way to fetch multiple records one at a time over different .php files? Thanks for any insights - this one has me stumped... ________________________ Greg Kelley, IT Director Londavia, Inc.
