Query Array, Sort Results And Display In Seperate Tables
The problem I have it breaking out the results and displaying them (broken out) alphabetically in seperate tables. For instance, I have generated (bookmarked) tables, one for each letter (A-Z) and want to display all recordsets with say, last name beginning with "A" in one 2 column table, "B" in another 2 column table, and so on... each table would have two columns (with 2 background colors alternating), each cell containing values of one recordset.
Even more tricky is if I have an odd number of cells, still generating the last cell with empty values (for asthetics). And can anyone say "sort" (yes, I am nuts)? The ability to sort the whole mess by any column value. I have looked at freeware and other third part apps, but they can only do what I already can do (mine is actually cleaner) but not as complicated.

Display Results From Multiple Tables
I have two tables, one table (article_cat) has four fields ("id", "title", "feature1", and "feature2") and the other table has six fields (articles) has ("id", "cat_id", "title", "content", "feature1", and "feature2"). I am looking to display the "title" from the "article_cat" table that has "feature1" with a value of 1. And I want to display beneath that all the "title" results from the "articles" table where "feature1" has a value of 1. I have tried this a thousand ways with no luck. Code:
Sorting Sql Results In An Array Using Things Outside The Array To Sort Them?
I'm using PHP to connect to a database full of place names, and their associated post codes, latitude and longitude on the earth. A user types his or her post code into a form, plus a distance (in miles), and the script looks for other area codes (first half of the post code) within that distance. I can do that fine, but the results are ordered alphabetically by postcode, and I want to order it by the distance. Problem here, is that the distance isn't part of the array taken from the database, it takes the latitude and longitude of the area it's on in the while loop, and calculates the distance between the user's post code and that one, but it's not part of the array, so I can't sort the array using it. How can I sort it? Can I add the calculated distances to the array, and sort it using sort()? If yes, how do I add them to the array? Here's the page, just to explain better what the script does: http://navimaker.org/ed/owain/results.php?postcode=gl15&distance=34 Mess around with the postcode and distance vars. I'd put the source on here too but I'm doing all this over SSH and can't copy & paste very easily .
Sort Search Results - Query Made From Form Variables
I have created a search engine with multiple search fields, the results.php page shows the results. My question is, how can I allow the user to sort the results (name, description, price etc), simply by clicking on the column title. This wouldn't be a problem if the SELECT query was constant - just add a $var at the end where ORDER BY should be, but how can I do this when the SELECT statement is made up of $_POST VARS? Surely if I reload the page with the sort command, it will have forgotten the $_POST vars that made up the query? I have searched EVERYWHERE for help on this PHP Code:
Results Of Same Field Names But Different Tables In MySQL Query.
I have a SQL string with a couple of JOINs that works perfectly in command prompt. I get results for all the fields selected just fine. But when I put it into a PHP page, I can't make variables(?) out of fields that have the same field name from different tables. Here's the SQL statement: $sql = "SELECT orders.companyid,orders.ordernum,orders.address,tb l_ih_accounts.company,tbl_ih_accounts.address FROM orderstatus ". "LEFT JOIN orders ON (orderstatus.ordernum = orders.ordernum) ". "LEFT JOIN tbl_ih_accounts ON (tbl_ih_accounts.id = ihid) ". "WHERE submitted <> 'yes' ORDER BY orders.ordernum ASC"; Then in the "WHILE" clause after the database is queried: $o_address = $row[orders.address]; $ih_address = $row[tbl_ih_accounts.address]; I've tried it without the table names in the $row statements, but then I'll just get the results for tbl_ih_accounts.address. I'm thinking there must be some way to uniquely "name" the results of a particular field up in the SQL statement, and then just use that unique name in the WHILE. But I have no clue, and can't find anything about anything like that.
Display Query Results In A Table
$sql = "SELECT name FROM employee_tb; $result_query = @mysql_query ($sql);// run the query while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result_query,MYSQL_NUM)){ $name = $row[0];} // assuming i have 8 results how can i display the results from this query in a table with 3 rows each column?
How To Make An Array With Query Results? (Postgresql)

QUERY Seperate Words
I have a database table called "content" which im trying to search through using a simple QUERY. I have a HTML form with a form field called "q", I then run a query when the form is submitted which looks like $sql = "SELECT * FROM content WHERE title LIKE '%".$_GET['q']."%' OR content LIKE '%".$_GET['q']."%'"; Which searches two fields of the database, "title" and "content". At the moment, if you search for something like "public" or "information" it returns a result, which is great, but if you look for "public information", then it returns nothing. How can I adjust the QUERY so that if someone enters "public information", then it would treat each word (ie: "public" and "information") as a seperate word and look for each one, thus returning a result.
Two Tables To Sort
I have two tables. Table 1 has the following columns: id, number and headline. Table 2: id, number, description. What I need to do is sort the rows from both tables to one page sorted by the field "number". I had two solutions: 1. Two queries from which I create one array. The array can then be sorted with PHP's function. The problem with this is that a "number" can have the same value in both tables. 2. Creating a temporary mysql table, inserting the data there and then selecting it ordered by the number. The problem with this one is concurrent users. If the table exists already and another user starts shoving "his data" to the table it all gets messed up.
Results Sort By First Letter Of Last Name
Ok, this is probably really easy. I know how to sort a MySQL result alphabetically by last name, but how can I restrict the sort to the first letter of the last name of a person... Basically I have a big list of people. I made an HTML table with headers for each letter of the alphabet. The goal is to list people who's last name begins with "A" under that heading, and so on.
Sort Db Results With Functions?
I store a country value based on the accepted country code (US, AL,DF..). What i want to do is sort people by country, abc order. What is the best way to do this? I've got a function that converts shorthand into the full country name, so countryphrase('US')returns United States of America. I was hopeing to do something similar to "SELECT * FROM users ORDER BY countryphrase(country)" where country is the column in the table holding US. Other then that i can only imagine the complex while loops required.
Sort Results By Another Column
A script lets users search a database for 'last name' and displays those results what is the simplest way to let them sort those (further query) results by 'first name' ?
Sort A List Of COUNTED Results?
I have a database holding a list of customer`s orders, i thought it would be neat to show the top 5 selling products on our website. Now i have a recordset that counts each product sold which COUNTS by model_ID and GROUPS BY model_ID But heres the problem i wish to show the highest COUNT descending?? So the highest COUNT is at the top and show five records giving me the Top 5 Selling models? At the moment it lists them in model order as you would expect.. here is the rough Recordset:- SELECT *, COUNT(mode_ID) FROM order_item,products WHERE products.prod_ID=order_item.mode_ID GROUP BY mode_ID
Strip HTML Tags, And Save To A Seperate Array

SORT / While / Query
I am trying to sort a query by the state_name column for viewing. I have a table where I SELECT a city and state_id for a user. Once I have the city and state_id I am able to SELECT characteristics (including the state_name) relevant to each city and state from another table (the data has to be in a separate table). I want to display the data in rows that are sorted, but also have the cooresponding city and state listed with the characteristics. Because I am taking data from two different tables, and running a 'while loop' for one query dependent on the other, the ORDER BY function does not work (at least that is what I think is the problem). The data IS being displayed with the appropriate fields associated, but I cannot sort the way I want. I have included code:

Formatting SQL Results In Tables
Fairly new to all this, but, I can return results from MySQL into a table without any problems - but what about formatting. I need the 6 columns to be of fixed width. Currently, due to the variable length of the data in the columns, they keep changing each time I cycle through a set of results.

Sort Results By Date/time, Limit 5 Database Entries Of Today &/or Upcoming Days
I'm designing a website for my fraternity and in the database I have entries which contain past events, todays events, and upcoming events. My problem is that I can not figure out how to sort the query results to display: 1) only past events based on the CURRENT DATE 2) only the events which fall on the CURRENT DATE or after, limiting the results to 5 entries 3) all events that fall on CURRENT DATE or afterwards Example: Today is September 15, 2007 Problem 1) Displaying all events that happened before September 15, 2007 Problem 2) Displaying only 5 results that fall on September 15, 2007 or after Problem 3) Displaying all events that are happening on or after September 15, 2007 And obviously I would like the CURRENT DATE to change depending on what date it is, currently. Ok so now I've been very redundant in my explanation of my problem here is the code and a link to what that particular page looks like. Code:
Display From Mutliple Tables
I'm sure this is an easy one. I have links to a page which grabs a name from table and inserts the data to the page.....Ex: domain.com/pagename.php?view=NAME which works fine. I am trying to insert data also from another table and can't seem to get it to work. Here is what I am doing..... I am getting the data using $rs=mysql_query("select * from tblxxxxWHERE name='$view'"); which works fine but then I am also trying to get the data based on the same $view as below.. $rs=mysql_query("select * from tblyyyyy WHERE team='$view'"); Any advice as the second one will not display any results. I am learning bit by bit and it looked to me as though this would work but obviously does not.
Print Results From Two Tables Linked Together
I need to be able to pull data from a table (product_status, which has many other fields) and cross reference it with data in another table (warranty). The data in product_status lies in a field called warranty_number, and is simply an id number (1,2,36,etc.) The data in table warranty, field warranty_comment, is text (30 day warranty, one year warranty, etc.). The warranty table also has a field called warranty_id, which corresponds to each text entry in the table. This number matches the number in table product_status, field warranty_number. So I need to be able to print results of product status, but instead of printing simply the number in field warranty_number, it needs to check table warranty, field warranty_id, then match the number, then pull the text from warranty_comment and print along with all the other results from product_status. I have some code that works, but it is not at all designed for this, so I won't post. Is this enough info to explain what I need? I have tried searching, but found nothing that I could see that would help.

Retrieving,Sorting & Displaying Multiple Results From Mutliple Tables
I need to know how to run a php / mysql query to do the following. I have 1 database (lets call it "database" for now) within this database there are multiple tables ("News","Feature","Header_feature") For NEWS I need only the 6 latest results pulled from that table and displayed in a table. The "News" table has the following columns "ID","Title","Date","Body","Image" For Feature I need only 1 result retrieved from the database and displayed under the variable $ticker as it will display as a scrolling marquee within a table. The "Feature" table has the following columns "ID","Ticker". For Header_feature I need only 1 result retrieved from the database and displayed in the following manner <a href="$link"><img src"$header_feature">[/url] The "Header_feature table has the following columns "ID","image","link" How would I code this all into 1 page? I cant seem to get the query to do everything I want it to and display the results properly. You can see what I have so far at www.getlivemedia.com The $ticker is the scrolling text near the top of the page and the news is obviously the bulk of the page and $feature_image is the broken image.

Query Different Tables
I've got a DB with let's say 3 tables (each registered user has one)... and in each table there is let's say id, username, totalmoney, amountA, amountB... I also have one fix external paramter let's say "5"... I need to query the different tables, in such way that I multiply 5*amountA, 5*amountB, add them both to totalmoney into a new variable let's say $totalwealth... then query the other tables and make an array with the $totalwealth values... Can this be done, in a relatively short script or do I need to write one for each table, insert into a database and then compare?

Sort Array Without Index
I'd like to sort a multidimensional array that hasn't numerical index, in fact it is like: Array ( [mobile] => Array ( [name_str] => mobile [relationCount_int] => 1 ) [video] => Array ( [name_str] => video [relationCount_int] => 2 ) [flash] => Array ( [name_str] => flash [relationCount_int] => 1 ) [tool] => Array ( [name_str] => tool [relationCount_int] => 1 ) ) And I'd like to sort, for instance for the value of "relationCount_int", so the new order should be something like: Array ( [video] => Array ( [name_str] => video [relationCount_int] => 2 ) [mobile] => Array ( [name_str] => mobile [relationCount_int] => 1 ) [flash] => Array ( [name_str] => flash [relationCount_int] => 1 ) [tool] => Array ( [name_str] => tool [relationCount_int] => 1 ) )
Multidim Array Sort
I am wondering if someone can point me to the needed sort function. There are so many of them that I simply got lost by reading their descriptions. I try to explain what I need. I have a multidimensional array and I have a function that outputs it as a table. $arr[0] contains an array that contains usernames $arr[1] contains an array that contains real names $arr[2] contains an array that contains e-mails etc... $arr[last] contains integers for users "levels" My function outputs users with their datas in the columns. Each column means one user. Now I want to sort this whole array by levels. So, all other data should be sorted according to the pattern in levels row. How is this thing done?
