I'm sure that printf and friends must be most confusing to those who don't
come from a C background :-)
I think something like this might work, and be a bit more comprehensible
to a neophyte.
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM teams",$db);
while ($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
extract($myrow); // allows you to access fields as $id, $teama etc
// printf("<a href=\"%s?id=%s\">%s %s</a> \n", $PHP_SELF, $myrow["id"],
// $myrow["teama"],$myrow["teamb"]);
echo '<A HREF="'.$_SERVER{'PHP_SELF'}.'?id='.$id.'">' . "\n";
echo "$teama V $teamb</A>\n";
}
