[thelist] multiple rows in the MySQL with same value

[Nan Harbison]

Rudy,

This is good to know, I have never known the answer to this.
If you code the returned query as if there was only one row, do you know
which one it would be? Would it be the last one it found, or the first one,
or a random one? I would guess it would return the first one it finds.

Thanks!
Nan

no, it returns all rows that satisfy the WHERE conditions
