I have two tables, the first one I query like : $query = "SELECT * FROM xp_topics WHERE artist_count='artist' AND topictext LIKE 'B%' ORDER BY artist_count DESC limit 0,5"; $req = mysql_query($query); $res = mysql_num_rows($req); if ($res == 0) { echo "</p> <p><b>Sorry there is no result.</b>";} else { while($row = mysql_fetch_array($req)) { extract($row); echo ("$topictext<br> "); } }
The second one I want to do a count for each one that was returned above. eg Billie (2) , Bill (4) Bret (1)........ How would I set up the query to do both?
