If you would entertain a MYSQL/PHP, hope not too off-topicIt's probably not difficult to solve - but you would be helping me with some SQL logic.
The only way I can think of to explain what I want to do is to give you my working newbie MSQL/PHP code that I'm learning MYSQL/PHP with, and at a certain point in the code below I'll state exactly as I can what I want to try to do. It's probably quite simple but I can't get it- Thanks: ... <pre> <?php $dblink = mysql_connect ( 'localhost', "guest", "password" ); mysql_select_db( "balloon", $dblink ); // Doing a FULLTEXT search // Re the SELECT: I indexed both fields together, so seemed like // I should put them both in the MATCH...OK, it works. $query="SELECT * FROM balloon_txt WHERE MATCH(access_no, recs_txt) AGAINST ('robin')"; $result = MySQL_query($query); ///////////////////////////////// OK, right here - next below I'm gonna display/loop $result from table balloon_txt. But, what I really want to do is take the "result set" access_no fields from the search above and (access_no is a Key in all my tables) and use it to generate results (ie. matching records) from another table called balloon_rec and dispaly/loop the results from balloon_rec. So I'm searching balloon_txt, getting results, but I want to display matching records from another table - balloom_rec. Is there a way to do a join or something in the SELECT above? Or do I process $result? Seems a join in the SELECT above or some SQL above is cleaner - but not sure how(?) Thanks, Lee G. /////////////////////////////// while ( $row = mysql_fetch_row( $result ) ) { for ( $i=0; $i<mysql_num_fields( $result ); $i++ ) {echo $row[$i] . " ;} echo"\n\n\n"; } // Close the db connection mysql_close ( $dblink ); ?> </pre> ... -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
