Yes - it is J and I. I tried using $i+1 in the echo originally but it wouldn't run. That's why I created $j.

Interesting it wouldn't run.. perhaps that's a place to investigate?

And just what is wrong with the old cr/lf sequence? How would you have done it?

If it is being sent to a browser, which i suspect given the html entities encoding, i would have used "<br />". If it is being sent to a terminal or file, I would have used "\n".

What do you mean 'this alone .....'?

Merely that the construction I see shouldn't matter whether you use $j or $i+1.

ok - here's the code in question. $q = 'select * from director_records '; $qrslt = mysql_query($q); $rows = mysql_num_rows($qrslt); for ($i=0; $i<$rows; $i++) { $j = $i+1;

Am i reading this correctly: the first variable is j (jay) the second variable is i (eye) ? This alone doesn't explain anything...

$row = mysql_fetch_array($qrslt); echo $j.'-'.$row['userid'];

Since this is the only place $j is used, try subbing in $i+1 and see what you get.

if ($row['user_priv']<> "")

      echo ' ('.$row['user_priv'].')&#13&#10';

This is really rather a strange way of getting a line break.

else

      echo '&#13&#10';

} The output I get is: 1-smith5 f-ginerjm (M) g-smith8 While the alpha parts are valid, the index is only correct for the first one (0) obviously.
