> Hello, how would I go about listing a portion of a MySQL table, without an > overall selection criterium? I have a unique index field, but it's a string > and not autoincremented (but manually and with gaps). I just want to go to > one particular row (query on that index field) and then list, say, 20 rows > before that point and 20 rows after it. So I can create an output of 41 > rows in a HTML table. Is there something like the dBase SKIP and GOTO > command? Should I do a query for each individual row (and get 41 result > sets) or can I somehow walk through 1 result set ? Use limit. To get first 20 rows: "Select * from mytable order by index_field limit 0,20" Next 20 rows: "Select * from mytable order by index_field limit 20,20" etc -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
