Building Static Pages - Script Timing Out

[deezin]

Hi there. I hope that you can help me. I am extracting a bunch of static pages from a database with PHP and MYSQL. I had the script working on a smaller scale, but when it had to sort out about 4,000 listings at once, it timed out. I have listings that I want separated by city within each state. So I want the page to look something like (all the listings to be separated by city one one page like below):

LISTINGS IN NEWARK, NJ

Listing Title 1
123 Generic Street Address
Newark, NJ 08520
609-371-1223

Listing Title 2
4556 Generic Street Address
Newark, NJ 08435
609-453-4323

etc.

I have included some my code below the table information, maybe one of you can help me and take a look. Thank you!!

TABLE 1

TABLE NAME: states_cites

id (auto_incremented number)
state (State Abbreviationgs)
city (City Names)

TABLE 2

TABLE NAME: tutorials

id (auto_incremented number)
title (Listing Title)
street (street address)
city (city)
state (state abbreviation)
zip (zip code)
phone (phone number)
category (category name)
catid (category id number)
icon (image name)
sub_folder (directory folder name)
categ_exp (long explanation of category)
short_category (short category explanation)

TABLE 3

TABLE NAME: categories

id (auto_incremented number)
category (category name)
short_category (short category explanation)
description (long category description)
sub_folder (directory folder name)

I will link to the code because it is too long to copy and paste into this thread.

do you have the small scale version in production so we can see what it's supposed to be doing?
