I noticed that Message-ID:
<1120846329.363902.109070@o13g2000cwo.googlegroups.com> from
guitarromantic@gmail.com contained the following:
>This might make a little more sense:

Working perfectly. It's fetching the first two columns Band_Name,
Record_Name and putting them in the select box

Whoa. If only one row is returned from this query, why do you need a
select box?

It prints the contents of the array. It will show you what you've got.
Right now it looks like your Staff_Name will be contained in $row2[3]
and Staff_id in $row2[4]
So you could lose the list and do:
echo "<option value=\"".$row2[4]."\">".$row2[3]."</option>";
However, if you want all the reviewers in a drop down box, you'll have
to query the staff table separately and create an array from which you
can generate the drop down box. Each time round the loop check if the
value matches the value returned from the first query. If it is, print
selected in the option tag.
