Yes, given a query (e.g. "SELECT ... FROM teams ORDER BY score DESC, errors") which we usually add a LIMIT clause to for pagination, and a team (either given by a primary ID, or maybe in other cases by a subquery returning one result from the result set, depending on the query), we want to find out the position that the team appears in the result. The aim being to do something like listing the 5 higher and 5 lower teams, or to provide a link to the page which contains this team. My question originally was to find the page number, but instinctively I'd do that by finding the overall position and doing some arithmetic - I don't think it would be reasonable to assume MySQL would understand my pagination Thanks for sticking with this, Gareth -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
