    <p>Let's analyse this code:</p> <pre><code>// this query returns one row with column `count`, you're comparing column // `category` to the literal string `count($categories)` where // `$categories` is an array of numbers and therefore evaluates to `count(Array)` $query1 = mysql_query("SELECT count(*) as count FROM tag1 WHERE ($where) AND category ='count($categories)' "); $count = 0; // warning: overwriting previous $row variable while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($query1)) { // an if($row=...) is better since you've on row anyway // Contents of $row = array( 'count' =&gt; NUMBER ); // You're overwriting $count with the number of found articles $count = $row['count']; } // unless the query failed or there are no articles found, the next condition is true if($count) { // undeclared variable $ids; $row['id'] does not exist since it is overwritten $ids[] = $row['id']; // The next lines do not limit the number of updates, it only updates // if $count == 4; where $count is the number of articles in a category $count++; if($count == 5) { mysql_query("UPDATE articles SET cat = '$curCategory' WHERE id in ('".implode("', '", $ids)."')"); // so if the current catgeory has five articles, quit? if(!$curCategory = array_shift($categories)) { break; } // otherwise, reset for the next category $count = 0; $ids = array(); } } </code></pre> <p>You should definitely look at your code and see if you understand everything. I'm sure that overwriting <code>$row</code> is not intended, neither is your query in <code>$query1</code> correct. When naming your variables, make them more descriptive. Use <code>$catCount_row</code> instead of <code>$row</code> for example. Note that you're overwriting <code>$count</code> each time, perhaps you want to take that out of your <code>while</code> loop.</p> <p>If you do not reach an article count of 4, no update will be done.</p>

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.
