Break MySQL Records Into CSS Columns Automatically
I'm making a page of links, each assigned a category. There are two tables - "favourites_links" and "favourites_categories". This is how the links currently appear:
Category 1 Name
Link 1
Link 2
Link 3
Category 2 Name
Link 1
Link 2
Link 3
What I want to do is break my page into columns. Basically, set a number of columns (e.g. 3), count the total records, and work out how many records to show per column. Each column should be enclosed in a <div class="column"> wrapper, which floats to the left. Code:

Show Page Break In Records
I've just started to learn php and sql, and I noticed that there are several php discussion groups here. Pardon me if this is the wrong group, and I hope my first question isn't too silly. :-) I'm building a website that will publish articles, so I have an article table which contains a heading field, an ingress field, and a body field which will hold the complete article. There are line shifts (or page breaks) in this field, but my display-page won't show them. How do I show the article with the page breaks?

Get Records Betwen Two Date Columns.
Maybe is silly but I know I can find a solution here. I have this table id | datein | dateout 1 | 2007-05-11 | 2007-10-11 2 | 2007-06-11 | 2007-10-11 What I'm trying to do is get all the records between date I passed via form. I tried "Select * from dates WHERE datein >= '$datein' AND dateout <= '$dateout'"; I stored dates as DATE on the DB. I tried to use BETWEEN, but I don't know if I can use on two different columns.

Searching Multiple Mysql Columns
I'm currently building a database of local businesses, I'm quite new to using php and mysql. While I'm mostly managing to stumble my through it, a couple of things are confusing me. This is one of the things. If anyone can help, that would be really great. Ok, so I've build a search page, and a results page and it works great but there is one problem. Currently it will only search through the 'name' column, but I'd also like it to search through the 'type' column at the same time. This is the code I'm using to fetch the results $colname_Businesses = "-1"; if (isset($_POST['search_par'])) { $colname_Businesses = $_POST['search_par']; } mysql_select_db($database_HBBA_DATABASE, $HBBA_DATABASE); $query_Businesses = sprintf("SELECT * FROM Businesses WHERE name LIKE %s", GetSQLValueString("%" . $colname_Businesses . "%", "text")); $query_limit_Businesses = sprintf("%s LIMIT %d, %d", $query_Businesses, $startRow_Businesses, $maxRows_Businesses); $Businesses = mysql_query($query_limit_Businesses, $HBBA_DATABASE) or die(mysql_error()); $row_Businesses = mysql_fetch_assoc($Businesses); I'm not sure what to add in to make it also search through the 'type' column or where to put that. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

PHP/mySQL Running Tasks Automatically?
I have a MySQL DB with all my client details (name, email address etc). I want to use PHP to retrieve records from the DB and email each of these clients (easy enough) BUT I want the system to automatically do this at pre-defined times. I have thought about using the UNIX/Linux CRON utility to perhaps call a PHP script that would retrieve specific records (based on a timestamp perhaps?) and then have it email based upon those records. Does this sound feasible? Are there better ways to do this?

Automatically Upload A MySql Tabel
I have a non-profit group that wants to upload water quality testing stats on a nightly basis to the web server database. Currently, the info is sampled by sensors in a pond, then transmitted to their local server (probably Windows type). They then want the info converted to MySql, then automatically get transported in the the web server database on a nightly basis. Now, all the up font stuff is no problem, but I have not gotten in to CRON jobs yet, and wonder if a php routine can be built that would upload the MySql table automatically every night. I have seen them for just the opposite (downloading table info), but not uploading.

How Do Iterate Through MySQL Records And Displat Them?
Basically I have a page where a person can choose from a list of stories posted by people, or they can choose to submit their own. I've managed to do the page where they can submit their on. The way i did this was to set up a mySQL database, and table in the database called stories. I then made an id (primary key), author, title, body and date field in the table. When the user submits their story its given an id (which increments on each submition) and their author, title and body fileds are sent to the database. The date key is automatically stamped in. Ive also managed to have the submition page display what they submitted by using the count(*) function, their story would be the last to be submited , so it pulls that from the database and displays it. Now what I want to do - on the page where they can pick a story, is have the page connect to the database and grab each record and display the author and title on the page next to a radio button. And have the id for the story in a hidden field or variable so when the user to chooses a particlar story it uses the id to grab the story from the database. So how do iterate through all the records in the database, and display each one?
