Hey guys,
I need an answer to a problem I've been trying to work on for days :(
I made a message board, which has a front page which lists Topic
name, topic started by, and what date. All this info, and the topic
message is stored in one mysql table. when you click on any of the
topics, it leads to a page which lists all replies to that topic by
topic_id.
Now what I want to do is have a listen on the first index page, the
number of replies for that particular topic. I know I need something
like select id from $secondtable where topicid=$topicid, and then use
mysql_num_rows, but I can't figure out how to integrate the first set
of results from table 1 with the query on table 2.
This is the query on the front page on the main table :
$query = "SELECT topicid, icon, name, topic, datestamp FROM
$maintable ORDER by datestamp DESC LIMIT 40 ";
$result = mysql_query($query);
TIA!
Sandeep
