Hello,

        Is there a way I can pick and choose which records to display in which part of my page?  I dont want to use a 'where' statement in my header because i want to load all records but only display certain ones.

so instead of using a foreach:

<?php foreach ($our_teamRecords as $record): ?>
Record Number: <?php echo htmlencode($record['num']) ?><br/>
Title: <?php echo htmlencode($record['title']) ?><br/>

I would like to say something like "if recordnum = 1, display title"

Hi Jeff - sure, it's very easy to do if you sort the records array by num first. Run the records through a foreach loop and copy them to a new array, setting the index to be the num of the record.

Then, wherever you want to put each record, use something like this: <?php echo $sortedRecords[1]['title']; ?>
