Displaying Data From Multiple Tables, Allowing User To Narrow Down By Certain Columns
I've got a three table database, with tables member, race, and results. The site is just for a running club to record their race results and keep details on each member.

I want to have a page where users can view race results, i.e. display the members name (stored in member) the race they took part in, the data of the race (stored in race), and the time they achieved (stored in results). I understand i will need a join query to do this, this isn't the part thats bothering me.. Code:

Display Records From A MYSQL Database On Multiple Pages.
I am trying to display records from a MYSQL database on multiple pages. I get the following error when I attempt to display the results

mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MYSQL result in

Displaying Multiple Items From Database
what i have is a page that has four sections. what i want to have is when the page opens, in that page i want the lastest two items for each section from a database to be displayed. the items to be displayed are an image, a title and a description. but i also want the description to be shortend to say about 25-30 words or about 100 chars, if thats easier?

so in the end i have 4 sections, each showing the lastest two items for each section.

would the best way to do this be to have a seperate table in the database for each of the sections? or would i be able to do it from one table?

would i have to creat a query for each of the sections?
e.g:
SELECT * FROM table WHERE section=section

Displaying Priorty Records And Normal Records In The One Dataset.
I have a page which displays the records from the database and uses paging to display the records in groupes of 10 per page.

I now want to be able to show results depending on the database field (display) in the database (can be set to either "full" or "limited"). If the record and the field display is equal to "full" i want to then display this record at the top of the record set and display all the fields.

If the record is equal to "limited" i want to display different results and they must show after all the records which are equal to "full". I can't output two different recordsets as i use paging and only want to show 10 records per page. Code:

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.

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 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:

Increment Multiple Columns
This looks to me as if it should work to display a list of items in a database, then update a field named "views" for each one (to record the number of views/day or whatever). I just found out that I had a typo. But the question remains: is this the "right" way?

while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql_whatever))
{
if ($row[type] == "Something")
{
echo ''.$row[pretext].'<A HREF="/?a='.$row[id].'">'.$row[anchor].$row[tracker].'</A> <BR><BR>'

Grouping Multiple Columns
Is there a way to group over multiple columns and still retain the unique count over those columns. Sorry I can't explain it better For instance if I had the structure like this, I'm wanting to group all numbers in column 'c1' and 'c2' and get the overall count. But the tricky part is in 'id' #3 where the same number spans two columns, I want it to count that as 2 and not 1 instance. Code:

+----+----+----+
| id | c1 | c2 |
+----+----+----+
| 1 | 1 | 3 |
| 2 | 1 | 1 |
| 3 | 2 | 3 |
| 4 | 4 | 1 |
| 5 | 3 | 1 |
+----+----+----+
What I'm looking to get is: Code:

[1] = 5
[3] = 3
[2] = 1
[4] = 1

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?

Displaying Records Via PHP/HTML
I have currently devised a way to display up to 3,000 records via PHP/HTML by using pagination techniques that stuff an entire DB query resultset into a $_SESSION object to use within pagination.

Here's my question: How good will this work when we start dealing with more than 3,000 records? Like 5,000? 10,000? 10,000+? The $_SESSION object will obviously become too large to be manageable.

What do you guys advise I do to manage this in the foreseeable future? No rush on this of course for now.

When I tried a while loop, to display the data in a table. No values were displayed. Could anyone possibly demonstrate how to display the username, firstname, surname values in a basic table?
