[PHP-DB] php and tables

2005-04-17 Thread Vikas Nanda
Hi 
 
I am new to php and mysql and am having a few problems that I hope someone can 
help with.
 
What I am trying to do is to display ratings for particular teams using some 
basic code. I needed to print the information out on a table with the highest 
average at the top and then ascending. I have all this info stored in a mysql 
db.
eg
 TEAMPLAYED  WIN   LOSS   DRAW  POINTS   AVERAGE
ENGLAND 16   6 6  4  16  1.00
 
I don't know how to print variables out in a table and I don't know how to make 
it ascending.
 
Any help would be much appreciated.
 
Thanks
 
Vikas

1st Get your SQL to ORDER BY points DESC
2nd use PHP to get the details on row at a time and display the results 
in an HTML table.

The specifics will depend on what your table looks like, for example if 
you don't have a points column then you may need to get SQL to calculate it.
