So it's a mysql table, not an Msql table.
$statement = "select msg from t_main where votes = (this is where Iam stuck)
"greater than others"
This is an SQL question rather than a Perl question, but I will answer it
for you. In the future, please determine the appropriate list for your
questions.
$statement = q{
SELECT *
FROM some_table
ORDER BY votes DESC
LIMIT 1
};
That will get you one row back, the row with the highest votes.
