How do you recommend I start going about this? With loops? An array? Again, I'm pretty new.
Thanks!

You can use a loop - either 'while' or 'for'. If you are using a MySQL database you can use the 'while' loop as such;
$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table");
$count = 1;
while ($result = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)) {
echo "This is ticket number " .$count;
$count++;
}
That's the basics of it, how you format it (either using images or in tables) is completely up to you. (Does that help?)
