Mysql Fetch_field Gets Table Alias, Not Real Table Name
After a SQL 'select .... from tablename alias'
the mysql_fetch_field function returns a value $result=>table which
will contain the alias, not the actual table name.
Is there a way to get the actual table name ?
I am running mysql 4.1 and php 4.4

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.

How To Select Count From 2ndary Table On Matches In Primary Table?
I'm coming back after about a 4 year break, so even basic stuff is taking forever to re-learn - I have a feeling that this is going to be a dumb question. Any suggestions on the best way to: SELECT count(<other table entry id>) FROM <other table> WHERE <the entries in this table referencing other table id> = <entries in other table by other table entry id> Basically, I just want to construct multiple rows of data that say: "here's the details of a Topic, and there are 10 (or whatever) Entries for this Topic" It seems like it should be simple enough.

Create A Table Say 3 Rows 3 Cols And Put An Include In Each Table Cell
I have been playing with php includes and thought it would be interesting to create a table say 3 rows 3 cols and put an include in each table cell pointing to other sites, i thought make each cell 500px wide and i would have a page with say four news sites from different countries, so i built my table added this in <?php include("http://www.cnn.com")?> plus others uploaded it then sat back to watch my master peice in action, but hey guess what! includes dont quite work like that, the sites all loaded under each other and the page was veery wide, and even my nav table include had the same rollover effect as the first site in the includes. Is there a way this can be done easily or should i forget this idea now, I have no need for this on my site I am just at the start of learning php so have tried this just for education reasons.

Outputting A Table Or Form Using SHOW FIELDS FROM Table
In the code the MySQL database was queried using "SHOW FIELDS FROM table" which and the returned results of column names was then use to build an output for a form and a table with php using a series of if statements along the lines of if the returned field name matches something echo a text input field. I have never seen this done this way before, so I want to get the opinion of the devshed user. Does it seem like an unsual long process to build up a form. Is there a security advantage doing it this way? Has anyone ever done it this way before?

Showing Data From A Table Based On Infos From Another Table!
i have 2 tables in my database : THREAD, and POST THREAD's rows are: THREADID, TITLE + FORUMID + REPLYCOUNT + VIEWS POST's rows are: THREADID, PAGETEXT and PARENTID i'm a big php newbie... I want to display the LAST TWO messages (highest THREADID) of my forum number 99 (FORUMID=99). I can probably do that, but the problem is that the text of the message is located in another table.. and it's getting too hard for my low-skilled brain lol so basically I would like to check in "THREAD" for the highest THREADID where FORUMID=99, display the TITLE, REPLYCOUNT and VIEWS, and then check in POST for the same two THREADID's where PARENTID=0 (meaning it is the first message in the thread) and finally display the PAGETEXT ! Could anyone give me a PHP code that would display that?

Search Results From Table And Relational Table
I have a products table with product name, supplier, size, price etc. and a category table with assigned products. Products can belong to multiple categories so the relationship is one to many. I want to search the products by category, supplier, size and minimum & maximum price. My current sql looks like this: PHP Code: SELECT cats.*, products.*, FROM cats, products WHERE cats.catid LIKE '$_GET[catid]' AND products.price BETWEEN '$_GET[minprice]' ANDÂ Â '$_GET[maxprice]' AND products.supplier LIKE '$_GET[supplier]' AND products.size LIKE '$_GET[size]' this returns the correct results from the main products table search parameters but doesn't return the correct category. I saw some postings about UNION but I don't understand it and am not even sure if it's what I need.

Search A MySQL Table
I want to create a php script to search a mySQL table. I started to create the script myself, but I got stuck, because the script became VERY complex. The reason why it's complex is this: *the script must be able to search all four columns of the table. if the user defines four different values to search (one for each type of variable (ie.: for each column)). If he doesn't give four values but by example only two, the script needs to search on these two values... *the script needs to return all four values of all the rows that match the query *the script may not return each result more than one time *if possible, the script needs to return 'the best match' on top examples: consider a table with four columns: animal_type |age | name | sex horse | 5 |beauty| female horse | 4 |bless |male cat | 9 |***** |female the query (horse,5,beauty,female) must return horse | 5 |beauty| female (only one time!!! this sounds logic, but it isn't!!!) the query(female) must return horse | 5 |beauty| female cat | 9 |***** |female the query (horse, female) must return 1) horse | 5 |beauty| female 2) horse | 4 |bless |male 3) cat | 9 |***** |female (number 1 must be on top; 2 and 3 may be changed of place, because they only match one variable!!)
