Hi everyone, I have made written some code (really bad code,I'm sure), that finds the earliest month that has a news story, and the latest month that has a news story. the code is below. I now need to loop through somehow, to build an array, that gives me the month (JAN,FEB,MAR) and the year it belongs to, along with the number of news stories each month has. I'm a bit stuck as i'm really new to this stuff, thanks for any help, you guys can give, heres the code i have: $strSQL = "SELECT date from ".$tbl_prefix."news where live=1 order by date asc limit 0,1"; $result = mysql_query($strSQL,$dbconn); $firstresult = mysql_fetch_array($result); $firstdate = $firstresult['date']; $firstmonth = substr($firstdate, 4, 6); $firstyear = substr($firstdate, 0, 4); $strSQL = "SELECT date from ".$tbl_prefix."news where live=1 order by date desc limit 0,1"; $result = mysql_query($strSQL,$dbconn); $lastresult = mysql_fetch_array($result); $lastdate = $lastresult['date']; $lastmonth = substr($lastdate, 4, 6); $lastyear = substr($lastdate, 0, 4); Michael Hill Senior Developer Holler
