    <p>I am trying to create a list of items in which every fourth item in the list is an item that is on from New York and On Sale. The rest of the items in the list are the items that are from New York no matter if they are on sale or not. </p> <p>How can I properly use two select statements to break the list up into the order that I want? Below is what I'm using now. It creates a list of paragraphs but does not understand what the variables <code>$article</code> and <code>$article2</code> are.</p> <pre><code>&lt;ul&gt; &lt;? $sort = id; $sql = "SELECT * FROM `Catalog` WHERE state = 'New York' and in_stock = 'yes' ORDER BY $sort"; $result = mysql_query($sql); $sql2 = "SELECT * FROM `Catalog` WHERE state = 'New York' and sale_item = 'yes' ORDER BY $sort "; $result2 = mysql_query($sql2); $i = 0; while ( $article = mysql_fetch_array($result) || $article2 = mysql_fetch_array($result2) ) { if ($i == 0) { echo '&lt;li&gt;This item number is on sale:'.article2[id]. '&lt;/li&gt;'; $i++; } else if ($i == 3) { echo '&lt;li&gt;This item number is regular price'.article[id]. '&lt;/li&gt;'; $i = 0; } else { echo '&lt;li&gt;This item number is regular price'.article[id].'&lt;/li&gt;'; $i++; } } ?&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; </code></pre> <p>Based on Dave's suggestion I'm trying it this way. But php still doesn't know how to interpret $itemsOnSale or $items.</p> <pre><code>&lt;ul&gt; &lt;? $items = array(); $itemsOnSale = array(); $sql = "SELECT * FROM `Catalog` WHERE state = 'New York' AND in_stock = 'yes' ORDER BY $sort"; $result = mysql_query($sql); while ( $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result) ) { if ( $row['sale_item'] == 'yes' ) { $itemsOnSale[] = $row; } else { $items[] = $row; } if ($i == 0) { echo '&lt;li&gt;This item number is on sale:'.$itemsOnSale[id]. '&lt;/li&gt;'; $i++; } else if ($i == 3) { echo '&lt;li&gt;This item number is regular price'.$items[id]. '&lt;/li&gt;'; $i = 0; } else { echo '&lt;li&gt;This item number is regular price'.$items[id].'&lt;/li&gt;'; $i++; } } ?&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
