<?php
$db = mysql_connect("localhost","root","");
if (!$db)
{
print "error - Could not connect to MySQL";
exit;
}

$er = mysql_select_db("touch_art1");
if(!$er)
{
print "error - Could not select the database";
exit;
}

extract($_POST);

$query = "SELECT date, yr_left, city_origin, country_origin, yr_arrival, city_arrival, state_arrival, filename FROM story WHERE country_origin = '$search_country' AND pamapproved = 'Y' ORDER BY yr_left";
$result = mysql_query($query);

Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.
