This lets you set the internal row pointer of the mysql result. In your case
you would want mysql_data_seek($result,0).

Subject: doing SELECTS and keeping the array intact with php
Hi all,
this has been bugging me for some time now.
I want to do a mysql select
then using php
while ($a_row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
do something to get a small portion of the data }
and that works fine. Then later I need to access $result as a complete array
again. Is there a way I can keep $result array intact and still take a
couple values out beforehand. I can get it to work, by doing the select
twice, but thats less than ideal.
Thanks enormously if you can help
Jules
