Please help with logical or syntactical problem!

Greetings!

Please be so kind and take a few minutes, I believe any mind other than
mine can solve this. I am writing a game. As you wander through the
gameworld, you may come upon signs. I have a DB where the signs are
listed, with "longitude" and "latitude". Anytime someone takes a step,
I want to show a grid where any square can be reached within 3 steps.
And if there's a sign in one grid, I want to show it, so the player can
walk directly to it.
In my test environment I have three signs located very close and around
to 100|50. The routine I wrote below works. But it only gives me the
last of the three signs. And I just can't tell if it's a logical
problem with my two loops and the foreach, or if there's a hook with
PHP itself.

So why does it only show me the last of the three signs????
Also, how can I make this with POST?
And I know this is messy, how could I make it faster?

I am grateful for any pointer!

Helpless regards, Gilbert.

PS: $lire is for x, $raru is for y

<pre>
$signr = $db->get_results("S ELECT text,longitude, latitude FROM signs
WHERE longitude>$lire-4 and longitude<$lire +4 and latitude>$raru-4 and
latitude<$raru+ 4",ARRAY_A);

for ($j = 3 ; $j <= 9 ; $j++) {
for ($i = 3 ; $i <= 9 ; $i++) {
$cps[$i][$j] = "<td width=30 height=30 align=center valign=center>< a
href='main.php? dir=$i$j'><img src='images/";
$icon = "gravel.gif ";
if (is_array($sign r)) {
reset($signr);
foreach($signr as $check) {
$x = $lire+$i-6;
$y = $raru+$j-6;
if ($check['longitude'] == $x && $check['latitude'] == $y ) {
$icon = "scroll.gif ";
}
else $icon = "gravel.gif ";
}
}
$cps[$i][$j] .= $icon;
$cps[$i][$j] .= "' style='border:2 px outset black'
border=0></a></td>";
}
}
// $cps[6][6] = "<td></td>";
$compass = "<form action='main.ph p' method='POST'>" ;
$compass .="<table cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0
background='ima ges/xmap.jpg'>";
$compass .= "<tr><td></td><td></td><td></td> ".$cps[6][3]."
<td></td><td></td><td></td></tr>\n";
$compass .= "<tr><td></td><td></td>
".$cps[5][4].$cps[6][4].$cps[7][4]."<td></td><td></td></tr>\n";
$compass .= "<tr><td></td>
".$cps[4][5].$cps[5][5].$cps[6][5].$cps[7][5].$cps[8][5]."<td></td></tr>\n";
$compass .=
"<tr>".$cps[3][6].$cps[4][6].$cps[5][6].$cps[6][6].$cps[7][6].$cps[8][6].$cps[9][6]."</tr>\n";
$compass .= "<tr><td></td>
".$cps[4][7].$cps[5][7].$cps[6][7].$cps[7][7].$cps[8][7]."<td></td></tr>\n";
$compass .= "<tr><td></td><td></td>
".$cps[5][8].$cps[6][8].$cps[7][8]."<td></td><td></td></tr>\n";
$compass .= "<tr><td></td><td></td><td></td> ".
$cps[6][9]."<td></td><td></td><td></td></tr>\n";
$compass .= "</table></form>";
unset($cps);
</pre>

I wrote that part again. This time the $cps is premade, and I only
foreach $signr and replace the $cps where necessary. Learning by
doing...
Thanks anyway to anyone who read it.
Greets, Gilbert.

Why can't we have an additional 'print' statement, that behaves exactly like 'print' but doesn't insert that damn blank between two arguments? Could be called 'printn' or 'prin1' or 'prinn' anything similar you like. Would make my life so much easier. Often I start with a nice and short print statement, then there happen to be more arguments and neat formatting becomes more important and as a result I find myself

Of course one can get the effect with appropriate use of existing operators, but a ^^ operator would make for nice symmetry (as well as useful to me in something I'm working on).

How can I run a single SP by asking multiple sales question either by using the logical operator AND for all the questions; or using the logical operator OR for all the questions. So it's always either AND or OR but never mixed together. We can use Northwind database for my question, it is very similar to the structure of the problem on the database I am working on.
