I wanted to trim it in this formate : Today Mr. X-Men is visiting Thimphu for ... The rest of the data i can hyperlink this sentence and show it in the another page.. Just like the Yahoo News for ur kind information.

<?php

# Type="MYSQL"
# HTTP="true"
$hostname_conn = "localhost";
$database_conn = "tol";
$username_conn = "root";
$password_conn = "";
$conn = mysql_pconnect($hostname_conn, $username_conn, $password_conn) or trigger_error(mysql_error(),E_USER_ERROR);
?>


<?php
$maxRows_Recordset1 = 5;
$pageNum_Recordset1 = 0;
if (isset($_GET['pageNum_Recordset1'])) {
$pageNum_Recordset1 = $_GET['pageNum_Recordset1'];
}
$startRow_Recordset1 = $pageNum_Recordset1 * $maxRows_Recordset1;

mysql_select_db($database_conn, $conn);
$query_Recordset1 = "SELECT sb_img, cont FROM news";
$query_limit_Recordset1 = sprintf("%s LIMIT %d, %d", $query_Recordset1, $startRow_Recordset1, $maxRows_Recordset1);
$Recordset1 = mysql_query($query_limit_Recordset1, $conn) or die(mysql_error());
$row_Recordset1 = mysql_fetch_assoc($Recordset1);

if (isset($_GET['totalRows_Recordset1'])) {
$totalRows_Recordset1 = $_GET['totalRows_Recordset1'];
} else {
$all_Recordset1 = mysql_query($query_Recordset1);
$totalRows_Recordset1 = mysql_num_rows($all_Recordset1);
}
$totalPages_Recordset1 = ceil($totalRows_Recordset1/$maxRows_Recordset1)-1;
?>
