That sounds like you may somewhere have a mysql_fetch_array() from which
you are not using the result; thsat ill fetch the first record, and if you
then start using the data from a "while($row = mysql_fetch_array" it will
start with the second record.
Something looks odd about your for loop, but my brain is a bit tired at the
moment and I can't pinpoint it :-)
