I was trying to avoid doing it for you but maybe you will learn more from seeing how it should be.

PHP Code:

$result = $db->query_read("SELECT vbfclassifieds_ads.title, vbfclassifieds_ads.userid, vbfclassifieds_ads.id, user.userid, user.username FROM vbfclassifieds_ads LEFT JOIN user ON vbfclassifieds_ads.userid = user.userid LIMIT 5");

$displaydata = '
        <table border="0">
            <tr>
                <th>Title</th>
                <th>Username</th>
            </tr>
        ';
while($row = $db->fetch_array($result))
{
    $displaydata .= '
            <tr>
                <td>
                    <a href="vbfclassifieds.php?do=showad&adid='. $row['id'] .'">
                        '. $row['title'] .'
                    </a>
                </td>  
                <td>
                    <a href="/member.php?u='. $row['userid'] .'">
                        '. $row['username'] .'
                    </a>
                </td>
            </tr>
            '; 
  }
$displaydata .= '</table>'; 


Then use $displaydata in your template.
