can you tell me how to get the DISTINCT elements in LINK
thanks
Just place your distinct fields between ().
example syntax:
SELECT DISTINCT ON (field1, field2, fieldn) field1, field4
in your case:
SELECT DISTINCT ON (link) *, rank[...]
Do remember that if you select different fields than the ones you use in
the distinct, the results may not always be what you want.
e.g.:
suppose you have this data loaded in the a table:
id field1 field2
-- ------ ------
1 foo fooble
2 bar barble
3 foo wobble
4 woo wibble
5 foo bobble
if you "select distinct on (field1) *" which of the records with foo in
field1 is going to be returned 1, 3 or 5? I believe this doesn't
nescescarily has to be the same value each time.
