  Repeat without duplicates.

  Aug 06, 2003 08:45 PM|LINK

  Ok, I have a dilly of a pickle. I'm creating a category and sublist kind of thing. What i want it to look like is: Category Item Item Item What i have is: CategoryCategoryCategoryCategoryCategoryCategoryCategory ItemItemItemItemItemItemItemItemItemItemItemItem It's a nasty mess, because the category is of course listed in my db for each item. So, if I have 5 Items under a category, the category types out 5 times. How do I tell it to list each item everywhere it needs to be, but the category only once? .jpg" > " target="_blank">
