Jeremy, The reason you are only getting the first value is because you are only retrieving the first value and assigning it to $data. You need to step through the result and do something with it. For example, if ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { do { $data1 = $row["mycolumn1"]; $data2 = $row["mycolumn2"]; } while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)); // more code } Alternatively, you could insert the values into a multidimensional array inside the loop, so you don't have to hardcode the columns. It's up to you.
