One Query, Two While Loops?

[son]

I have a query and would like to go twice through returned data (show data in different format). Is this not possible with same query? The first while shows nicely all info, the second one does not. The code is:

$query = "SELECT finish_id, finish, img FROM finishes WHERE range_id  = $prange";		$result = mysqli_query ($dbc, query);					if (mysqli_num_rows($finish_result) > 0)			{			echo "<select name=\"fn\" id=\"fn\">";			echo "<option value=\"0\">Select finish</option>";				while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array ($finish_result, MYSQLI_ASSOC))				{				$finish_id = $row['finish_id'];				$finish = $row['finish'];				echo "<option value=\"" . $finish_id . "\"";				echo ">" . $finish . "</option>";				}				echo "</select> ";				while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array ($finish_result, MYSQLI_ASSOC))				{				$finish_id = $row['finish_id'];				$finish = $row['finish'];				$img = $row['img'];				$finishImgPath = "assets/finishes/preview/";				$size = getimagesize("assets/finishes/preview/{$img}");				echo "<img src=\"" . $mainPath . $finishImgPath . $img . "\" " . $size[3] . " alt=\"" . $finish . "\" title=\"" . $finish . "\" /></a>";				}			}

Do I have to run the query twice?Son

Loop through and dump the results into an array, then you can loop through the array as much as you want.

How can I dump the results in an array?Son

$data = array();while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))  $data[] = $row;print_r($data);

Be careful about memory requirements, if you have tens of thousands of records you'll probably hit the memory limit before you're able to store everything. For nicer memory usage, you can use this to reset the result pointer to the beginning so you can loop through it again:http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-data-seek.php
