use a limit clause in your sql
use mysql_query to execute the query
use mysql_fetch_ass oc to load it into an array
iterate through the array doing whatever you wish to do with it.

Now have you made a start ?

if you're receiving large amounts of records it may be good to use mysql_free_resu lt() at the end, this will clean out your memory.. and if you don't like mysql_fetch_ass oc you could use mysql_fetch_arr ay, which is what I usually use..

I would also suggest using mysql_close() when you're done

If I change the data type in mysql to varchar then asp will display the time correctly, but I cannot do it this way. I want to be able...

Hi I'm have difficulty displaying images that are stored in a MySQL database. I've tried using the odbc.net provider, the ByteFX provider and the MySQLDriverCS one but can't seem to get the image to display on the screen. I've tried searching on the net but can only find examples on how to do it on SQL Server and havent had any luck converting them to work with MySQL. I thought I had to put the data into a byte variable then use

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.
