Haven't done this in a while, but here is my question. I have 4 stories, and you land on the story page where one story is shown and on the side there is a listing of the other 3 stories that are active in that edition. So what I would like to do in one query is get the three that are not shown on that page. So can I do something like $story_sql="SELECT * FROM story WHERE approved = 1 AND editionId = $eid EXCEPT nid = $nid"; $nid is the id of the story whos detail page we are on

SELECT * FROM story WHERE approved = 1 AND editionID = $eid AND nid <> $nid -- ---John Holmes... Amazon Wishlist: www.amazon.com/o/registry/3BEXC84AB3A5E/ php|architect: The Magazine for PHP Professionals – www.phparch.com
