Hi,

Depending on the database you are selecting from you could do it in one select like 
this:

select category, count(*) from $table group by category order by category;

- Frank

> How would you get the count of each category?
> 
> Like this - http://www.scriptsearch.com 
> 
> Would you have to run a different select for each 
> one? or would you do something like "select category
> from $table " and then count all of the matches for
> each category "perl" "php" "asp"
> 
> thanks much,
> Josh
