If I understand that correctly, you only need to add the extra condition
to the WHERE clause of the main query. So:
SELECT id, name, cat FROM table
WHERE cat = (SELECT cat FROM table WHERE id = $ID) AND id <= $ID;
This should display all rows, before and including the row with the same
'cat' as 'id' has. For your example of $ID = 51 it should display:
+---------+------+
| id | cat |
+---------+------+
| 40 | FLK |
| 41 | FLK |
| 42 | FLK |
| 44 | FLK |
| 45 | FLK |
| 46 | FLK |
| 47 | FLK |
| 48 | FLK |
| 49 | FLK |
| 50 | FLK |
| 51 | FLK |
+---------+------+
O.K. this is the problem! it should display all rows, before and including AND AFTER the row ,starting from the specified row with the same 'cat' as 'id' has.
Huh? You want before, after and including? So everything?
Maybe give us an example of what you want to get out of the query rather
than us guessing.
