I wanted to be able to control the flow of data in a loop instead of just building tables with it or having to write 500 select statements for single line items. This is what I came up with thanks to the help of my PHP brother in FL. Hope someone else gets some use out it. <? //set array variable $results = array(); //talk to the db $query = "SELECT * FROM yourtable"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); //count the rows and fields $totalRows = mysql_num_rows($result); $totalFields = mysql_num_fields($result); //start the loop for ( $i = 0; $i < $totalRows; ++$i ) { //make it 2 dim in case you change your order $results[$i] = mysql_fetch_array($result); //call data at will controlling the loop with the array echo $results[your_row_id]['your_field_name']; } //print the entire array to see what lives where print_r($results); ?> ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 68.101.4.135 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+61422 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61422&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61422&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61422&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61422&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61422&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61422&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61422&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+61422&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
