You have to define a field as a primary key. Did you do that?

I tryed to clean the code up a bit for ya'll. Hopefully it helps in getting a response.

[Increment.]

[Trouble with this script :( any help?]

Sorry if the code didn't come out very clean and easy to read.

[Trouble with this script :( any help?]

Hey all,

 

I am trying to get this script to output this data how I want. I want the table to rotate classes on each <tr> to make the rows different colors. I got it working fine on my other pages, but this one has a complicated sql query that is making it hard for me to figure out how to run the loop. If you could take a look at it and try to help me out that would be great! I have noted the part that I have been trying to run the loop in with /////// on top and bottom of the code for easier reading.
