Please help, a bit new to this!
I've got two databases and I'm trying to look with values from one table in
one database and then look up a name from the other database, the two tables
are linked where 'postedby' in my newsdb database refers to 'ID' in my
tblemployees table in my basedb database.
All I get is one name shown and 6 records where there are actually 7.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Matthew
Code Below:

<?php
require_once('Connections/newsdb.php');
require_once('Connections/basedb.php');
mysql_select_db($database_newsdb, $newsdb);
$res_newsdb = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM tblnews ORDER BY newsdate DESC");
mysql_select_db($database_basedb, $basedb);
$row_newsdb=mysql_fetch_object($res_newsdb);
$res_basedb=mysql_query("SELECT * from tblemployees WHERE
ID=$row_newsdb->postedby");
?>

$res_base = mysql_fetch_array($res_basedb);
$ndate = $res_news['newsdate'];
