Hi everyone and thanks for reading. This problems been driving me nuts for the last day and I'm completely stuck. I made a dummy table of users to test out SQL connections but everytime I echo out the information, it keeps dropping the first record, and jumps straight to record two onwards. If I sort the query using ORDER BY 'id' desc, then it will drop the last record and start on the one before the last; any ideas whats gone wrong?
