This is a PHP question, not MySQL. http://www.php.net/mysql_data_seek

What I need to do is reuse this results set in another drop down box. but I can not figure out how to do this. If I use the mysql_free-result($qid_speaker) and then try to do the query again I get a mysql_fetch_object(): 12 is not a valid MYSQL result resource.
