Selecting Item List And Count From Other Table
I have been failing at trying to get this query to work. Here is the query I can't get to work: SELECT cont.key_no, ( SELECT COUNT(1) FROM items itm WHERE itm.cont_key_no = cont.key_no ) AS item_count FROM containers cont WHERE cont.status = 'OPEN'; Here is a query I managed to get working, but it doesn't quite do what I want it to. It doesn't return a container and item count for containers that don't have items: SELECT cont.key_no, COUNT(itm.key_no) AS item_count FROM containers cont, items itm WHERE cont.status = 'OPEN' AND itm.cont_key_no = cont.key_no GROUP BY cont.key_no Here are what the tables look like: containers ---------- key_no status items --------- key_no cont_key_no If you can't tell from the examples above, I am trying to return a list of all 'OPEN' containers and how many items are in the container, even if no items are in the container.

Selecting All Items From Table1 Where It Does Not Have An Associated Item In Table2
I have a table, menu_items, with id, service_parameter, and text. I have another table, menu_item_parents, with parent_id and child_id, so that an item might have multiple parents and multiple children. Now I want to select all top level items. It seemed like it'd be simple enough, but I can't figure it out. How owuld you select all items in menu_items that does not have any rows in menu_item_parents where child_id = the menu item id?

Item=item+1

SELECT Item
I can't seem to get this although I know it's probably simple. I need to SELECT the text in a specific col, but just the text next to the largest auto_increment number.Code: id | col_text _______|__________ 1 | text A 2 | text B 3 | text C 4 | text D ... ... etc The thing is, I won't know what the actual number is in the id col, i need a way to select the text in the record with the largest id number.

How To Search All Fields For An Item?
I currently use a query like: SELECT * FROM sr_main WHERE footprint LIKE 'conn%0p80%'; What I would like to be able to do is search ALL record fields rather than searching just the field 'footprint'. There must be an easy way!? I thought this would work: SELECT * FROM sr_main WHERE * LIKE 'conn%0p80%'; but it seems I can't wildcard the fields... is that right?

Inserting An Item Into 2 Tables
I have a simple database with 2 tables. Table 1 = Product Info, and Table 2 = Product Stats. I could have it all in one table, but I use two tables to keep things organized. I have a unique ID that ties the two tables together. Now, I have a little problem adding a new product to my database (with a php script). This is what I have: mysql_query("INSERT INTO products(name,description,price,size,weight) VALUES(''$name','$desc','$price','$size','$weight') ")or die(mysql_error());mysql_query("INSERT INTO stats(popularity,sales,opinions) VALUES('','','') ")or die(mysql_error()); The problem is that sometimes when I add a new product, the ID will be different in each table. For example, I just added a new product, and the ID in table "products" was 114 while the ID in table "stats" was 115. This of course causes problems, each product has to have the same ID on both tables. Is there a better query I could use? The products table always has info inserted, but the stats tables starts-off with all values being empty (they get populated with time, as sales start, etc)

How To Create A Query To Get Top 5 Item For Each Date
I have running out of idea on hw to create a query to get each day top 5 item with a date range given more than 1 month or more. meant: if i have a date range from 2006-01-23 to 2006-10-23, then i want to get the latest 31 days data only with each day TOP 5 item.

Table Design For Storing Item Stats
I've created quite the database for my app, and I'm familiar with normalization and general db design. However, I'm ready to design my tables for recording all sorts of stats for my db items. I want to be able to view stats for each item, such as number of small views, number of large views, number of downloads, ratings and so on. I also want to be able to view these items by periods of time, such as by day, week, month, by multiple months, by year, etc. So, I'm trying to figure out what the most efficient way of recording this data, so that I can keep my tables as small as possible. I'm wondering if I will have to insert a row for every stat, or if I should enter a row for every day, or only a day if there is activity, etc.

Browsing Records: (first, Prev, Next, Last) And Getting A List # Like Item # Of ##
Very simple database to store comics, I'm trying to start small with PHP and MySQL. table name: comics Fields: ID: int auto-increment primary-key title: tinytext date: date location: text (stores the relative file location, "images/comics/1.jpg") So now my trouble... In a perfect world, the database ID field would one day have 100 records with ID numbers 1-100 consecutively. In the real world I see myself having to delete entries for whatever reason which will leave gaps in the ID field. Is there a mysql command to go to the next entry that comes after a certain ID number? Same with previous. Is there a way to find the highest number ID in the database quickly? The lowest? Finally, I would like to display something such as "Comic X of XX". XX is easy, I can just use count. But if I retrieve ID 22, how do I know how many records came before it without doing something like looping through the database in PHP and running query for each preceeding ID#? I assume that PHP loop method would be time consuming and a poor use of resources? Or would that actually make sense? Sorry for the newb questions. The book I bought was more reference than tutorial, I didn't have enough time to pick one out properly which leaves me floundering a little with the basics.

Elt Command - Extracting Single Item From Group From Field
I have a varchar field which contains a comma delimeted set of data. I am trying to us the ELT function to extract the first part of the group. Problem is, ELT does not seem to work when the data comes from a field. If I take the data and do, select elt(1,"red","green","blue") RESULT would be "red" But if the data was stored in a field (called group) and I did: select elt(1,group) RESULT would be red,green,blue Why is this a problem? I am running mysql 4.1.0 on windows. I am going to try this on another / older / newer version of a DB today and see if I can replicate the problem. Wandering if this is a bug or not? Also, does anyone know if there is a function that compares sets together. Similar to find_in_set, except both the needle and the haystack are sets.

Previous Record
I need to get a previous record from database - i need to retrieve records which differs from the previous one about 5s example: select eventDate,previousEventDate,eventDate-previousEventDate as delta from events having delta<5 order by eventDate; eventDate is normal column from table previousEventDate is an "alias" for the previous date ... how can I write it in SQL? Please help. I can use SELECT as subquery, but it would be probably really slow, the table will have 100000s maybe milions of records soon.

Get Next And Previous Records
Our website has a portfolio database which uses a column entitled 'list_order' to set the order of how we want the projects to display in a list. Each project has a link to click into it to see the full details of the project. Inside this details page we would like to add a View Previous Project and View Next Project link which would allow the user to navigate through our projects. The problem is that we are using an order set by 'list_order' and not an auto incremented column. How would I setup the Query to grab the previous and next rows no matter which project the user clicked on? For example, our database has these records: id - list_order 102 - 100 89 - 200 7 - 250 30 - 300 97 - 400 20 - 500 62 - 600 88 - 650 103 - 700 85 - 800 112 - 900 95 - 1000 So, if someone clicked into id 97, we'd need a query that would grab id numbers 30 and 20 for the previous and next id to create the links.

Select Previous And Next Id After Id=# ?
For a gallery I'm trying to query for a picture by its id and also get some images before and after that id (according to current sort) are there references like DOM previousNode or stuff like that to use in the WHERE statement? Or how could I do this? Currently I have: ($picId is a php variable) '(SELECT id, picUri, picUriSmall FROM pictures WHERE id < '.$picId.' ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 2) UNION (SELECT id, picUri, picUriSmall FROM pictures WHERE id = '.$picId.') UNION (SELECT id, picUri, picUriSmall FROM pictures WHERE id > '.$picId.' LIMIT 2)' This works but doesn't seem to be the best way. I want to be able to have it working for other sorts than by id. And the two first images gotten by this query will be in reversed order (can be fixed in php). Is there a way to ask for my picIDs position in a query and then use another query to make the LIMIT 10,14 if my image was in position 12?

Paging With Only Next/previous
I'm running PHP + MySQL (innodb) and in some pages, the paging is slowing down the system a lot. Now I've seen on some sites that have paging implemented in an interesting way. They only let you go forwards and backwards one page at a time, and some don't even tell you how many results there are. For instance if you look at google search results, they only says "about XXX results". Plus they never actually let you jump to the last page. I'm thinking of implementing my system this way in certain pages as well, to cut down on the load times. However, I'm exactly sure how that cuts down the load. Can someone shed some light on this?

Joins Across Multiple Tables, Influence Which Item To Take If Only One Is Needed Of Each Kind
I'm trying to get a join across multiple tables to work where I have to walk across several pivot tables to get one of the selection criteria. What I want is the latest entries for each supplied wp_terms (the category) in the wp_posts table. While fetching each one with its own query is easy, I'm stumbling when trying to build a query that returns the latest entry for a list of supplied categories. Group by doesnt seem to cut it, since it takes place before the order by. Here is the query and its output (without grouping, this will return all entries for the specified categories): ....

Determine Previous Month
basically I need to display a list of "unpaid" statements for the previous Month, no matter what day the search/request is made on. I know MySQL has the DATE_SUB function where I can subtract 1 Month from the current date, but will that subtract the date exactly 1 month to the day ? Or will it simply give me the Month as I need ? What happens if the search takes place on the 31st of a month (for example: July), yet the previous month only has 30 days (June). Will it roll back to the previous month correctly or think that the date is 31st June or try to roll back further until it finds another month which has 31 days ?

Getting Next, Previous Record After INSERT
When I insert a record in a given index order I want to be able to traverse to the previous or next record of that index order, before or after the one I inserted. So for example if I insert a record with an address of "20 Heather Court" using an address index order, I want to be able to push a Next button (on a Web HTML form) to go to the record corresponding to "21 Heather Court" or, if I press the Previous button I I want to be able to go the record corresponding to "19 Heather Court". Assuming of course that both the Next and Previous records exist before I insert "20 Heather Court". If I change the index order to customer first name and insert a new record for a customer named "Harry" I then want to be able to push the Next button and see the record for a customer named "Jan" or if I push the Previous button I likewise want to pull up the record for a customer named "Garry". Assuming that the records for Jan and Garry already existed before I inserted the one for Harry and that they became the Next and Previous records with respect to Harry's after the insertion. Using an auto increment field does no good because every time I change the index order any kind of sequential relationship between the values in the auto increment field gets totally messed up. I have also tried statements like " SELECT * FROM Customers WHERE Customer_ID <349 ORDER BY `Customer_ID` ASC LIMIT 0 , 1" without success if there are 10 records before the one with a Customer_ID of 349. A LIMIT of 0,1 will start at record 0 for only 1 record. I want to pull up the record immediately preceding the one with a Customer ID of 349. In short is there some way to tell which record is Next or Previous to one that I insert under a given index order?

Get Previous And Next ID Of Current Record

Is there a good way to get the previous and next id of a record with a single SQL Query? example: ID's: 4,10,7,9,13 I open my page and show all details from the record with the ID 7, now I want to create the links and I need the previous and the next ID, 10 and 9. I could make a query that returns only the ID's and loop through the recordset till i have my ID's but that's such an ugly solution, not to mention the performance issues.
