Hi Rik,

I replaced the existing $where line with the one above as per your
suggestion, and this now works perfectly! :-)

Old: $where = (isset($_GET['imagetype'])) ? "WHERE imagetype =
'".$imagetype."'": '';
New: $where = (isset($_GET['imagetype'])&&$_GET['imagetype']!='') ? "WHERE
imagetype = '".$imagetype."'":'';

I wouldn't have a clue why one works and one doesn't (well, they both worked
of course, but 1st one returned only blank fields, and the 2nd one returned
all fields which is what I wanted), but I've got a few books to work through
now so I'll revisit this post in a few months (if I'm lucky!) and let you
know! :-)

Thanks for all your help Rik, it's appreciated.
