Re: [PHP] $this-db-Record[WLPcountry.name]

 Hello,

 I'm using phplib to add functionality to my bibliography app.  However I'm
not
 sure how to deal with selected data from different tables with the same
field name.

 The example I provided in the signature was:
 $this-db-Record[WLPcountry.name]

  Which needs to be differentiated from:
 $this-db-Record[WLPpublisher.name]

 Any suggestions would be useful...


You can use the AS keyword to rename the fields to whatever you want, for
example:

 SELECT
 WLPbib.bibID,
 WLPbib.title,
 WLPbib.publicationDate,
 WLPbib.URL,
 WLPpublisher.name AS publisher_name,
 WLPaddress.city,
 WLPaddress.state,
 WLPaddress.countryID,
 WLPcountry.name AS country_name,
 WLPprofile.firstName,
 WLPprofile.middleName,
 WLPprofile.lastName,
 WLPprofile.organization
 FROM
 WLPbib


So then, you'd have:

$this-db-Record[country_name]

and

$this-db-Record[publisher_name]

Hope this helps!

Cheers
