Hello,
I'm making some headway on joining three MySQL tables. (Thanks to responses
from this list early this morning)
However, when I run this query:
mysql_query("SELECT
WLPbib.bibID,
WLPbib.title,
WLPbib.publisher,
WLPbib.publicationDate,
WLPaddress.city,
WLPaddress.state,
WLPprofile.firstName,
WLPprofile.lastName,
WLPprofile.organization,
WLPcountry.languageName
FROM WLPbib
LEFT JOIN WLPprofile ON WLPprofile.profileID = WLPbib.profileID
LEFT JOIN WLPaddress ON WLPaddress.publisherID = WLPbib.publisherID
LEFT JOIN WLPcountry ON WLPcountry.countryID = WLPaddress.countryID");
I now get results in triplicate. ie. I'm getting three copies of the same
title, firstName, organization, etc....
I somehow suspected that this should be the result with LEFT JOIN, but I'm not
sure how to return a query without duplication.
This is far better than what I had this morning (which was no response from the
server).
Thanks. I'm new to joining tables...
Mike
