Strange ORDER results

2001-05-30 Thread Olexandr Vynnychenko

Hello everyone,

I tried 2 queries:

1) SELECT id, CONCAT(title, ' [', id, ']') as name FROM rubrics ORDER BY name
2) SELECT id, CONCAT(title, ' [', id, ']') FROM rubrics ORDER BY title, id

The 2nd returns results in alphabetical order but the 1st is a little
bit strange... Does anybody knows why they return results in different
order?

database,sql,query

This would not be unusual if id is a numeric column.
