are you just looking for a way to display 10 results per page? If yes then you can just use LIMIT to limit your result to 10 .. So, for the first page, you can do "SELECT .... LIMIT 1, 10;" and for the second page "SELECT ... LIMIT 11, 20" etc etc . You can sure use "ORDER BY" with "LIMIT" to to sort the results for a given criteria ..

The next page the user chooses, randomizes again and could show duplicate fields and not at all show other fields. Does anyone know a way round this? -- Regards, Georgie Casey [EMAIL PROTECTED] *************************** http://www.filmfind.tv Ireland's Online Film Production Directory *************************** -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
