if i understand you correctly, perhaps this:
select * from categories a,category_user_rights b where
a.name!=b.username;
jack
When i do something like that I get loads of duplicate records including the
ones that should be there! so if i do a group the result just looks like
i've selected everything...
here's my query for getting all the (sub)categories that DO have an entry in
category_user_rights... Somehow i need to reverse it to pull out
everything but what it's returning at the moment! :o(
$sql = SELECT categories.ID, categories.title, categories.code ;
$sql .= FROM categories, category_user_rights ;
$sql .= WHERE categories.parentcat_INC = $cat ;
$sql .= AND categories.ID = category_user_rights.category_id ;
$sql .= AND category_user_rights.username = '$username';
$result = mysql_query($sql);
Original message:
categories contains:
ID,
parent_ID,
name
users contains:
username,
password,
name,
etc
category_user_rights contains:
username,
category_ID
How do I pull everything out of categories that a given user DOES NOT have
rights to? ie. every record from categories that does not have a record
in category_user_rights linking it to a username such as fred
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
