not downloaded coz the fla is no use without seeing the php!  
yes, you have to use & between var/value pairs.

</div>

here is the php code:

```php
<?php
mysql_connect("hostname","username","secret");

mysql_select_db("database");

$query1=mysql_query("select * from news");

$nrows=mysql_num_rows($query1);

for($i=0;$i<$nrows;$i++){

$row=mysql_fetch_array($query1);

echo $row['date'].":".$row['data']."<br><br>";
}
?>

```

PS:I have not used the ‘username’,‘password’ literals in the original file!
