  • 1. Ordering models in a list then saving to db
    Hi guys, I am trying to allow the models in a mysql database to be ordered by the site owner. I was thinking along the lines of a <SELECT> list containing the model names and Up and Down buttons to move the models up and down the list. I am unable to come up with a solution for getting the order from the list however. Any suggestions? Thanks for your time, Matt

Why not make a normal datetime field (format 0000-00-00 00:00:00,
year-month-day) which is easy to be sorted (ORDER BY date)? You can change
the output to your preferred format easily with PHP, either with the date()
function or by exploding and rearranging it.

assuming the above formatted string is in a field called fred, you could add
this to the end of your select:

order by
concat(substring(fred,7,4),substring(fred,4,2),substring(fred,1,2),substring(fred,12))

Sure, prefectly possible in just one query.

or possibly:
alt.php.sql

2.SELECT date ORDER BY question

Hi there,

I would like to sort a query by date in ascending order, however I do
not want 'empty' dates to appear at the top, I want them to appear at
the bottom instead.

Is there any way I can do this with one SQL query?

desired result:

2007-07-11 09:00:00
2007-07-12 10:00:00
2007-07-13 11:00:00
0000-00-00 00:00:00
0000-00-00 00:00:00

etc

Many thanks,
Steve

3.how to order, then limit, then order?

Hello.  I hope this question isn't too silly.  I am working on a PHP/
mysql application that has a list of (scientific research) papers, a
list of keywords, and a list that makes links between the two.

What I'm trying to do is to show just the most popular keywords, and
to show them in alphabetical order.

My approach (illustrated at the end, with a query that workd) is to
order by a count of use, and then to limit the results.  But, as I
imagine the clever folks who read this group will see quickly, the
query leaves the keywords ordered by popularity.

Q: is there a way that I can get Mysql to take the results of this
query and then order them alphabetically, or should I be doing that in
PHP?  (I assume it would be faster to do it in mysql.  And, I may as
well admit it, I am enjoying learning mysql, so I'd like to get this
task done in that domain instead of in PHP.)

Many thanks, to anyone who is kind enough to offer some advice.

Dan.

THE QUERY IN QUESTION --


SELECT Keyword, KeywordID, count( PaperID )
FROM Papers_Keywords
LEFT JOIN Keywords ON ( Keywords.id = Papers_Keywords.KeywordID )
GROUP BY KeywordID
ORDER BY count( Keyword ) DESC
LIMIT 0 , 5;

5.Select Records In Order Based on an Ordered ID List

Hello!

Let's say I have an ordered list of ids that correspond to an ordered
list of records I want to retrieve,  ie. 32,80,10,90,28,5

What's the most efficient way to retrieve the records corresponding to
the ids in the same order as the ids?  It seems the IN clause doesn't
preserve ordering, and using UNION to submit the same query with
different id WHERE clauses seems messy/inefficient.

Thanks!
Mike
