Queries oh queries

[Saturday (Stuart Kidd)]

Hi,

I'm trying to retrieve data from two tables in one query, when i was  
just querying one everything was okay:

                 <cfquery name="GetAuthors" datasource="user020">
                 SELECT authorID, authorPhotograph, authorFirstName,  
authorSurname, authorAboutMe
                 FROM tbl_020authorDetails
                 WHERE authorPhotograph <> ''
                 </cfquery>

But my two table query (join) had a problem:

                 <cfquery name="GetAuthors" datasource="user020">
                 SELECT tbl_020authorDetails.authorID,  
authorPhotograph, authorFirstName, authorSurname, authorAboutMe,  
tbl_020articleDetails.articleID, tbl_020articleDetails.authorID,  
articleTitle
                 FROM tbl_020authorDetails, tbl_020articleDetails
                 WHERE authorPhotograph <> ' ' AND  
tbl_020articleDetails.authorID = tbl_020authorDetails.authorID
                 </cfquery>

The thing is that I am trying to pull all the authors and their  
articles - but some authors have more than one article, is this the  
best way to do it?

I'm also worried that if i pull the data like in the join above (if  
that even works properly) how do i break it down, ie how do i  
differentiate between getting information for individual authors?

                     <cfoutput query="GetAuthors">
                     <div class="contributorminibox"  
onclick="javascript:clickarticle(this)">
                         <div class="contributorphotograph">
                             <img  
src="#PhotosWritersWeb##GetAuthors.authorPhotograph#">
                         </div>
                         <div class="contributortext">
                             #authorFirstName# #authorSurname#
                             <p>#ParagraphFormat(authorAboutMe)#</p>
                         </div>
                         <div class="contributorurls">
                             The titles to go here.
                         </div>
                     </div>
                     </cfoutput>


Thanks for any help.  Should I just keep this in two queries?
