Looking for a kind response. You do this using the LIMIT option to your select. Basically you do a query like this: SELECT * FROM mytable LIMIT 0,10 Then simply keep a counter. You can make a link that looks like this for example: http://thesite/thepage.php?n=10 Then the next query, use the above variable: SELECT * FROM mytable LIMIT 10,10 Add 10 to the variable, and the next link will be n=20 and so on. See the following URL for the docs: http://www.mysql.org/Manual_chapter/manual_Reference.html#SELECT -- [ Below is a random fortune, which is unrelated to the above message. ] And it should be the law: If you use the word `paradigm' without knowing what the dictionary says it means, you go to jail. No exceptions. -- David Jones
