So now should be listed another company with second best offer - without using the offers from the first company.
Is this how you want it?

Hi again Marek,
I want the results like this:
company1 1plan1 // this is the important one as its the least/most (depending on DESC or ASC) 1plan2 // this is all the other plans company1 offers (which meet the sql parameters)
company2 2plan1 // this again is important as its the second least/most (depending on DESC or ASC) 2plan2 //this is all the other plans company2 offers (which meet the sql parameters)
company3 3plan1 // this again is important as its the third least/most (depending on DESC or ASC) 3plan2 //this is all the other plans company3 offers (which meet the sql parameters)
etc
I've pretty much given up on this coz I have been experimenting with differient code and my brains gone to mush right now...
Thanks for trying.

Still you have shown only how you didn't want the results ordered but how you want them.

Hi Marek, Sorry about the confusion, let me explain.
With default sorting (without $TheOrder) I am getting this:
(using $sqlle = "select * from $table_namee where price <=$max and
spacee
=$min order by custno,price LIMIT $limitvalue1, $limit"; )
company1 1plan1 1plan2
company2 2plan1 2plan2
company3 3plan1 3plan2
etc
Which is the perfect results that I am looking for. This is the code i
am
using to get that output:
if(empty($Tcompany)) { $Tcompany = $row[4]; } elseif($Tcompany != $row[4]) { //echo plan and html here $Tcompany = $row[4]; }
So far so good, I am getting everything exactly the way I want it.
Now I want to give the user an ability to sort the data according to
the
way he wants it....so I am using: ($sqlle = "select * from $table_namee where price <=$max and spacee=$min order by $TheOrder, custno LIMIT $limitvalue1, $limit)
and the results are coming out jumbled like this:
company1 1plan1
company3 3plan1
company1 1plan2
company2 2plan1 2plan2
I do basically want to order by both (as you said)...first order by $TheOrder and make sure it displays by "company".... Rob from the list said something about caching the result...but I really couldnt understand...am looking into it though.
Any ideas or questions?
Thanks, -Ryan
Hi again,
I cannot spot any difference from the original that you already have.

Hi, Thanks for replying.
Yes, i know ordering by both at once as if they were on the first
place
is
illogical, thats why I need a php answer to "wangle" this....I want
the
desired output to be the same when the sort by was by default
"price"..eg:
company1 1plan1 1plan2
company2 2plan1 2plan2
company3 3plan1 3plan2
etc
What do you think?
Cheers, -Ryan
How do you mean it? Order by both at once as if they were on the first place? Is this logicaly possible?
You should post your desired output.
