hi..

can someone tell me how i get the data from two tables, where table1 will
have one row, and table2 will have many rows?

eg:

    2    fred
    3    wilma

table2:

    id    student_id     subject

    1    1                   maths
    1    1                   science
    1    2                   woodwork
