Thanks in advance for reading this: I am trying to take a query based on user input and selectively output fields to a table. Heres the query code: <<< snip - snip>>> $query_result = mysql_query($query); while ($field = mysql_fetch_array($query_result)) { $returned_rows = array( array( "id"=>$field['id'], "lastname"=>$field['lastname'], "firstname"=>$field['firstname'], "yearhired"=>$field['yearhired'], "yeardepart"=>$field['yeardepart'] ) ); } <<< snip - snip>>> Now what I want to do is put only the lastname and firstname in a small table with alternating colors: Like this: ----------------------------------------- | $lastname, $firstname | ---> color=blue ----------------------------------------- | $lastname, $firstname | ---> color=white ----------------------------------------- | $lastname, $firstname | ---> color=blue ----------------------------------------- Heres the code: <<< snip - snip>>> <table class="results_inner"> <?php foreach ($returned_rows as $value) { printf ("<tr><td class='results_blue'>%s, %s</td></tr><br>", $value['lastname'], $value['firstname']); next($returned_rows); printf ("<tr><td class='results_white'>%s, %s</td></tr><br>", $value['lastname'], $value['firstname']); } } ?> </table> <<< snip - snip>>> The problem is that it only prints one name. Also next() doesn't seem to be advancing the table so I am getting duplicates of the one name it does print to the table Thanks. -- Scott -- Scott Phelps Regional IT Manager Ridgway's, LTD. 5001 Cleveland Street Virginia Beach, VA 23462 757-490-2305 --- Linux: "$ su - root" --> Windows: (reboot) -- Scott Phelps Regional IT Manager Ridgway's, LTD. 5001 Cleveland Street Virginia Beach, VA 23462 757-490-2305 --- Linux: "$ su - root" --> Windows: (reboot) -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
