A small SQL query problem concerning articles and article_comments :) You experts will have no problem with this :)
In brief: --------- I have no problems displaying the title, date, author, summary of the articles or anything. Its just doing an sql query that gets my 3 latest articles AND counts how many comments each article has, and doing it in ONE query instead of two separate ones... :( In *not* brief: --------------- I have 2 tables. One contains articles, basically like this: ------------------------------------------------------- | id | title | summary | text | date | author | ------------------------------------------------------- The other containts comments to the articles, basically looks like this: ----------------------------------- | id | article_id | text | author | ----------------------------------- Now, on my main page I want to display the first 3 articles like this: TITLETITLETITLETITLETITLE (date) written by AUTHOR SUMMARY SUMMARY SUMMARY SUMMARY SUMMARY SUMMARY SUMMARY SUMMARY SUMMARY SUMMARY SUMMARY SUMMARY SUMMARY SUMMARY SUMMARY SUMMARY SUMMARY SUMMARY >> Read the whole story (comments: ##) My actual problem is how to get the number of comments (##)! I have no problems displaying the title, date, author, summary or anything. Its just doing an sql query that counts how many comments the article has, and doing it in ONE query instead of two separate ones... :( --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <mysql-unsubscribe-##L=##[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
