The two "tables" shown above are result sets to which I have a handle.
It is my understanding that I can treat them as tables (albeit temporary
ones) until they are released. Is that understanding incorrect?
Getting all the months listed is *exactly* what I want. I'll try your
query a bit later, thanks.

Yup, still working through so much documentation it makes my head spin.
I've been reading a good hour a day, and a couple of times substantially
more than that, since I started this little HTML/PHP/PEAR/PGSQL project.
That's why I usually include a phrase like "answers or pointers to
relevent docs welcome". Sometimes I haven't yet gotten to the point of
knowing which doc to read. Then a URL does wonders for me... RTFM is so
much easier when you find the FM. :-)
