Tom Haapanen [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: Leon Noble [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 23 October 2001 05:45 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Very untidy Hi all, can someone look at my very untidy code and maybe give me some pointers. Searching for values by the hour. etc for ($i = 0; $i <= 23; $i++) { $query = "select count(num) as mycount from dundeefw where date=$date and action=1 and time=hour($i)"; // Execute query $result = mysql_query($query) or die ("Query Failed"); while ($row = mysql_fetch_array ($result)) { $connection[$i] = $row["mycount"]; } } I am wondering if there is anyway using SQL to avoid doing this the very messy way. many thanks Leon. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
