[thelist] PHP/MySQL odd problem

[Leigh.DSylva at cas.gov.on.ca]

Mr Tenuta's code:
>  // Assigning variables from cell values to later output
>  $category = $row["category"];
>  $link = $row["link"];

Burhan Khalid's reply:
>>Here you are reassigning $link, which makes it invalid for your second
>>query. That's why only one works.

I've been following this thread avidly but do not understand the solution
as supplied by Burhan Khalid. As far as I can see Mr Tenuta's code was
identical in the two SQL statements (apart from the table name) but Burhan
points out that the "$link" variable was being reassigned. Can someone
point out what I'm not seeing, please?

Thanks

Myopically,
