Store your first time result in your own query.. and then just loop your
own query as many times as needed...
$yourArray = array();
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC) {
$yourArray[] = $row;
}
then just do this as many times as needed...
foreach($yourArray as $rowNum => $row) {
//$row would be same as the original $row inside the while loop
inside this loop.
}
