<?php
include("admin/includes/config.inc.php");

mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password")or die("cannot connect"); 
mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select DB");

$sql="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name ORDER BY year DESC, month DESC, day DESC";
$result=mysql_query($sql);
$num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result);

?>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
.smbold {font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; font-size: 11px; }
.smmainit {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-weight: normal;
font-size: 11px;
font-style: italic;
}
.smmain {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-weight: normal;
font-size: 11px;
}
.link {font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; font-size: 11px; }
-->
</style>

<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="3" cellpadding="3">

    <td width="81" align="center" class="smbold"><div align="center">Download</div></td>
  </tr>
  <?php
while($rows=mysql_fetch_array($result)){
?>
  <tr>
    <td valign="top"><div align="center" class="smmain">
        <? echo $rows['month']; ?>/<? echo $rows['day']; ?>/<? echo $rows['year']; ?></span></td>
    <td><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">

      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td class="smmainit"><? echo $rows['scripture']; ?></span></td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td class="smmainit"><? echo $rows['ser_series']; ?></td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td class="smmain"><? echo $rows['speaker']; ?></td>
      </tr>
