Would using sort($result); solve the problem? I believe the default sort order is ascending. Try using sort($result) before your while($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result)) statement and see if that fixes things.
I also noticed that you don't use an ORDER BY clause in your sql statement, but if the query works in MySQL, then I guess it's not necessary? Good Luck Rich -----Original Message----- From: Blaine D.

They are showing consecutively all the way until 150 then they start going backwards for example: 157 156 155 154 159 160 161 162 163 When I do a query in MySQL they are sequenced correctly but using the php mysql_fetch_array() I get this crazy numbering sequence. Does anyone know what this could be?
