I'm new to MySQL and loving it. So pardon my lack of the simple things. I need to index a table where the field is indexed, so when I look at the in the PHP script it is in order.
Use 'order by' in your select statement: http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/SELECT.html
Also when I run a query how can I save the results as a new table?
Use the 'create table...select' statement:
http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/CREATE_TABLE.html
alternatively, if you want to save the results in an existing table, use the 'insert into...select' statement:
