RE: [PHP] Counter Quandry

you should first count them, so you connect to the database , make query SELECT (*) from ... and then that will be the number of results found for your criteria, with the same SQL then go wild pulling out the data and constructing tables.. Hope this helps, it's how I would do it ..

I create a page on the fly with a table for each qualified selection. I have a counter that increments after each table is created. I would like to use the final count at the *beginning* of the page: before the program starts writing the tables. How do I do that?
