Subject: SELECT .. OR from multiple tables
I've got two tables, "Current" and "Temporary", Current has a row with
login='keric', Temporary doesn't.
The following query:
mysql> select * from Current, Temporary where Current.login='username'
or Temporary.login='username'
-> \g
Empty set (0.01 sec)
obviously doesn't work. I want to know if that row exists in either
table in one SQL call. Maybe it's just me today..
Anyone?
