Hi,

What I'm trying to achieve I would have thought would have been very 
simple, but I must be stupid, LOL!

I have two tables - blogs (for blog entries) and comments (for 
comments on the blog entries).

The blogger writes an entry and visitors leave comments for a 
particlular blog entry. The comment entry form will appear under 
each blog entry, and after the associated comments if there are any.

I want to display on the web page all the blog entries for a 
particular day followed directly underneath each blog entry by any 
comments, or none at all if no comments have been made.

I have a number of fields in each table:

=====
blogs
=====

bID (primary key)
timeAdded
title
entry

========
comments
========

cID (primary key)
bID (foreign key)
timeAdded
name
comment

As I understand it, this is a one to many relationship (one blog 
entry to many comments).

What I can't get my head round is how to write the mysql query so 
that a particular blog entry is displayed with its associated 
comments displayed directly underneath, followed by the next blog 
entry and associated comments.

As an aside (I think I can work out how to do it) the blog entries 
for a particular day will be listed last entry first and the 
associated comments listed first comment first.

TIA for any help.

Richard
