I am using the state name in the URL that I'm referencing... So something like: www.example.com/new-york/212/314 would bring up the entire 10,000 records for 212-314-**** > > Trying to avoid the normal index.php?vars=blah&you=Blah type stuff... > > Indexes... I'm still learning about those... I created a index based on the areacode, and exchange fields... But more reading is needed to figure out just how to use it properly :) > > Thanks Ash! > > > > > You could still search based on the state name, but you could then use a join or first search the states table for the ids of each matching state and use an IN clause in the query against the phone numbers. -- Thanks, Ash http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk
