Count,sort,diplay Number Of Records In MySQL Table
I am designing a search engine using PHP/MySQL and I am logging all search terms into a MySQL table. I was wondering how I count the number of occurences of a term in the table, and then sort and display the terms in descending order. For example, if the column in my table with search terms looked something like this:
clothes
casinos
clothes
homes
homes
clothes
How can I count and order the records so that I can display according to how many times they appear, like so:
1. clothes(3 entries)
2. home(2 entries)
3. casinos (1 entry)

Table Join Count Records.
got my counting records script just the way I want it, now I've read all the posts on Joins, and read the manual and mysql.com.... but can't seem to get the right number to come out. I have two tables: table1 & table 2 table one has a field called ID and field two has a field called relID (this is the link between them) I want to count all of the records in table two where the relID is equal to the table 1 ID field. I thought this would do it, but the number it returns is wrong: PHP Code:

Create Dynamic Table With 3 Columns And Unknown Number Of Records?
I'm trying to create a table with only 3 columns, but the problem is I don't know how many records will populate the table so need it to automatically create <tr> and </tr> tags every 3 records. How best can I do this? At present the code below just lists every single record in one continuous row - but as I said, I want to only display 3 records per row. Code:

Using PHP To Sort Data In MySQL Table 1 By Values In Table 2
I have a MySQL database with 2 tables in it. products and prices.. Products has a field in it called 'prodno'. Prices has a field in it called 'prodid'. There is one of each item in products and each product has it's own unique 'prodno' There are multiple instances of each product's pricing in prices.. One for each price.. So if a product had multiple prices depending on quantity it would have an entry for each price.. Example: id = 1 prodid = 7001 qty = 300 price = 12.5 id = 2 prodid = 7001 qty = 400 price = 15.5 I was wondering if I could query the database getting info from the products table but sort it according to the prices in the prices table. Kinda like doing a "SELECT * FROM products" ordering it by the lowest price value from each item.. This is all very confusing to me, and I'm the one writing it. Let's try one last time.. Query the database selecting * from products (I plan on using all the info in products) and ordering them by the lowest price for each item in the prices table. I've tried sorting the results of just a basic SELECT * FROM products using Javascript and PHP but with pagination in the results it makes it a bit hard.

Does MySQL Start To Reach Any Sort Of Limit In The Number Of Rows
Does anyone thinks it's better to use one table for a lot of information, or use multiple tables to separate the info. For example, I am going to be having different areas from all of the western states reporting recruiting activity each week. If there are five regions reporting in each week, and about 10 people in each region reporting, would you recommend just having all the info in one table seprated by a regional name, or have a separate table for each region? My main question is: Does MySQL start to reach any sort of limit in the number of rows in a table that it can effectively process? If there were, say, 4,000 rows in a table, does that become a problem?

Mysql Table Sort From Url
I am creating a table from mysql data. I have the column headers setup as links and clicking those sorts the table with php, so its not a javascript sort. I was wondering what people do to remember what sort state was selected and put the opposite ASC or DESC link. Basically if i am sorting by company name ASC, the company name header link should be DESC. I hope that makes sense. I guess i could store it in a session variable, but was just wondering if there are other ways to do it.

Having Trouble Looping Through Records In A MySQL Table
I'm having some trouble looping through the records of a MySQL table using PEAR DB.

Apache / PHP Page Built From A MySQL Database Diplay Problems
Here is the basic scenario: - Configuration data is gathered from Oracle servers then ftp'd to my apache / mysql server. - The apache / mysql server receives the datafile from the Oracle clients and loads the data into a MySQL database. - The webpages are coded using PHP, SQL, and some JavaScript. Now here is where it gets weird.... - When the data is displayed (pages are based upon the configuration of each Oracle <server-name>+<database-instance-name>, some times the data displays other times the page is simply blank? It is only for a few out of the many that we have in the MySQL database. It is always the same ones with the problem. Re-loading the data for those problem <server-name>+<database-instance-name> does not fix it. Anyone see this before? Could it be a special character that the web browser cannot handle? I am at a loss on this one.

How Do You Sort Records?
I have a db table "person" that I can sort by title, first_name, last_name, or city with no problems at all because "title", "first_name", "last_name", and "city" are columns in the table. The requirement is to ALSO sort by department NAME. Problem is, I can't do that in the "person" table because the column is "department_id" which is a foreign key constraint to the department table. How do I sort the person records by department_name based on this? I am using PHP 4.3.2 and MySQL 4.0.10 Now, second problem and even more of a problem: The requirement is to ALSO sort by state NAME and country NAME. The fields "state" and "country" in the "person" table contain only an abbreviation of state and country; the corresponding full name of each state and country are found in respective XML files in /xml/state.xml and /xml/country.xml

I am making a private messaging script as an addon for a script I have already made and was wondering how I would go about counting the number of messages in a table that are to a certain user.... eg... the database +--------------------+ |todj | message | --------------------- | |User 1 | Blah blah... | |User 2 | Blah blah... | |User 1 | Blah blah... | +--------------------+ Now what query would I use to ask it how many messages are there for User 1 and then echo it in text form? Something like this maybe? <?php $result = mysql_query("COUNT to WHERE to="$_SESSION['username']"); ?> The table also contains a subject, date, and fromdj field if it makes any difference.

Count Total Records.
I am currently displaying the Total number of Topics within a Forum, but I dont know how. Each Topic is assigned to a Forum by inserting the Forum's id which is "ID", (located in forums table), and into a field named idforum, which is located in the topic_fr table. Now that idforum has the id of the forum it has been inserted into, I can display these in each forum. I have 2 forums, but I do not know how to display the total number of topics in each forum. I was thinking something like this, but no. $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM message_msg INNER JOIN forums ON idtop_msg=id WHERE idtop_msg='$id'"); $number=mysql_num_rows($query); echo $number;

Count The Number Of Peoples In A Region
I've ever the same problem. Table1 idperson, name, zip table2 zip, city, region. Table2: same zip, many cities (1000, Lausanne - 1000, Lausanne1, ...) Now I'd like ONE query wich return the name, zip and city, but just one record per zip. I mean if a record in table1 has zip 1000, I only want the first occurence of the city (in my case Lausanne). Actually I get as many records as they are cities with the same zip. namex,1000,Lausanne namex,1000,Lausanne1 namex,1000,LausanneN.... How to do so ? in fact what I need is count the number of peoples in a region, and the region is linked to a zip. 1000, Lausanne, VD 1000, Lausanne1, VD.... the actual query is select count(idperson), region from table1 inner join table2 on table1.zip = table2.zip group by region.
