Jason,
Hope this will help you get what you want. Of course you need at least one
more loop (calculating the number of 'display' actions from
"sth->numrows()") to repeat the display process for rows 5-10, 11-15, etc.
--------------------
#!/usr/bin/perl
use DBD::mysql;
#connect to database
$dbh = DBI->connect("DBI:mysql:lablog:$dbhost",$dbuser,$dbpass) || die "No
database connection";
#do your query
$sth=$dbh->prepare("SELECT * FROM table WHERE something='wanted'");
$sth->execute();
#display 5 rows containing 3 columns,
for (i=0; i<=4; i++) {
($column1, $col2, $col3)=($sth->fetchrow());
print "Result: $column1, $col2, $col3\n";
}
Regards,
Sebastiaan J.A. Kamp
