I have two tables which I'm trying to combine and get data from one of them, depending on the query.
My sql query: (Which does not work)
SELECT *
FROM contacts
INNER JOIN users
(ON contacts.user_id_sender = users.id
WHERE contacts.user_id_sender = '$user_id' AND contacts.status = 1)
OR
(ON contacts.user_id_receiver = users.id
WHERE contacts.user_id_receiver = '$user_id' AND contacts.status = 1)
Basically, I have a class that needs to return the 'users' of which 'contacts' that is a part of the users id, and has a status of 1.
The idea behind this is a Contact/Friend system table. I basically have a Users and Contacts table, and I need to return the Users data depending on which of the contacts has relation to OUR user id.
The () brackets in the ON where placed incorrect + there was a WHERE statement in the ON clause, which is not allowed.
This looks like what you wrote, but then syntactically works:
SELECT *
FROM contacts
INNER JOIN users
ON (contacts.user_id_sender = users.id
AND contacts.user_id_sender = '$user_id'
AND contacts.status = 1)
OR
(contacts.user_id_receiver = users.id
AND contacts.user_id_receiver = '$user_id' AND contacts.status = 1)

i'm in the process of joining two tables together under two different conditions. For primary example, lets say I have the following nested query:
$Query = $DB->prepare("SELECT ID, Name FROM modifications
WHERE TYPE =1 & WFAbility = '0'");
$Query->execute();
$Query->bind_result($Mod_ID,$Mod_Name);
and this query:
$Query= $DB->prepare("SELECT `ModID` from `wfabilities` WHERE `WFID`=?");
$Query->bind_param();
$Query->execute();
$Query->bind_result();
while ($Query->fetch()){ }
Basically, I want to select all the elements where type is equal to one and Ability is equal to 0, this is to be selected from the modifications table.
I further need to select all the IDs from wfabilities, but transform them into the names located in modifications where WFID is equal to the results from another query.
Here is my current semi-working code.
$Get_ID = $DB->prepare("SELECT ID FROM warframes WHERE Name=?");
$Get_ID->bind_param('s',$_GET['Frame']);
$Get_ID->execute();
$Get_ID->bind_result($FrameID);
$Get_ID->fetch();
$Get_ID->close();
echo $FrameID;
$WF_Abilties = $DB->prepare("SELECT ModID FROM `wfabilities` WHERE WFID=?");
$WF_Abilties->bind_param('i',$FrameID);
$WF_Abilties->execute();
$WF_Abilties->bind_result($ModID);
$Mod_IDArr = array();
while ($WF_Abilties->fetch()){
$Mod_IDArr[] = $ModID;
}
print_r($Mod_IDArr);
$Ability_Name = array();
foreach ($Mod_IDArr AS $AbilityMods){
$WF_AbName = $DB->prepare("SELECT `Name` FROM `modifications` WHERE ID=?");
$WF_AbName->bind_param('i',$AbilityMods);
$WF_AbName->execute();
$WF_AbName->bind_result($Mod_Name);
$WF_AbName->fetch();
$Ability_Name[] = $Mod_Name;
}
print_r($Ability_Name);
See below:
SELECT ModID,
ID,
Name
FROM modifications M
LEFT JOIN wfabilities WF
ON WF.ModID = M.ID
WHERE TYPE =1 & WFAbility = '0'
To do this, you need to join your tables, I'm not quite sure what you are trying to do so you might have to give me more info, but here is my guess.
SELECT ID, Name, ModID
FROM modifications
JOIN wfabilities
ON WFID = ID
WHERE TYPE = '1'
AND WFAbility = '0'
In this version I am connecting the tables when WFID is equal if ID. You will have to tell me exactly what is supposed to be hooking to what in your requirements.
To learn more about joins and what they do, check this page out: MySQL Join
Edit:
After looking at your larger structure, I can see that you can do this:
SELECT modifications.Name FROM modifications
JOIN wfabilities on wfabilities.ModID = modifications.ID
JOIN warframes on warframes.ID = wfabilities.WFID
WHERE warframes.Name = 'the name you want'
This query will get you an array of the ability_names from the warframes name.
This is the query:
"SELECT A.ID, A.Name,B.ModID,C.Name
FROM modifications as A
LEFT JOIN wfabilities as B ON A.ID = B.WFID
LEFT JOIN warframes as C ON C.ID = B.WFID
WHERE A.TYPE =1 AND A.WFAbility = '0' AND C.Name = ?"
I have coded up an example of exactly what the MySQL query needs to do, I had tried to combine the two queries but I didn't have any success with doing so. Basically, what this does is selects all users that $session is not friends with already.
I don't know how much I need to explain as far as my table structure goes, as you can see what I need to do using my query below, but basically my friends table only has one row for each friendship. (a friendship is only valid if the state is 1 and the CASE statement is necessary to get the friends ID from the friendship, since my table does only have one row for a friendship.
$getUsers = mysql_query("SELECT id FROM users WHERE id!=$session");
$getFriends = mysql_query("SELECT CASE WHEN userID=$session THEN userID2 ELSE userID END AS friendID
FROM friends
WHERE (userID=$session OR userID2=$session)
AND state='1'");
$usersArray = array();
$friendsArray = array();
while($usersC = mysql_fetch_array($getUsers))
{
$usersID = $usersC['id'];
array_push($usersArray, $usersID);
}
while($usersF = mysql_fetch_array($getFriends))
{
$friendID = $usersF['friendID'];
array_push($friendsArray, $friendID);
}
print_r(array_merge(array_diff($usersArray, $friendsArray), array_diff($friendsArray, $usersArray)));
You want an anti-join, which you can effect through an outer join and a filter for records where the joined table is NULL:
SELECT users.id
FROM users LEFT JOIN friends f
ON (f.userID = $session AND f.userID2 = users.id AND f.state='1')
OR (f.userID = users.id AND f.userID2 = $session AND f.state='1')
WHERE f.userID IS NULL AND f.userID2 IS NULL
AND users.id <> $session
See it on sqlfiddle.
Im trying to get in Array that contains the results from a MYSQL query.
I have 2 ids stored in the table hitlist user_id and mark_id
they need to join in the table users to retrieve there usernames that match there id's and in the future other variables.
i have this working in a weird way and was hopeing to get this working in a more efficent simple way similar to this
$Hitlists = $db->query("SELECT * FROM hitlist JOIN users ON hitlist.user_id = users.id AND hitlist.mark_id = users.id")->fetchAll();
This is the code i have that is working...for now it looks like it might give me problems later on.
<?php
$index = 0;
$Hitlists = array();
$st = $db->query("SELECT * FROM hitlist JOIN users ON hitlist.user_id = users.id")->fetchAll();
$sth = $db->query("SELECT * FROM hitlist JOIN users ON hitlist.mark_id = users.id")->fetchAll();
foreach($st as $id)
{
$Hitlists[] = $id;
}
foreach($sth as $id)
{
$Hitlists[$index]['markedby'] = $id['username'];
$Hitlists[$index]['mark_id'] = $id['mark_id'];
$index++;
}
The way you are joining the table is wrong. You can get the exact records you want, you need to join users table twice to get the username of each ID
SELECT a.*,
b.username User_name,
c.username mark_name
FROM hitlist a
INNER JOIN users b
ON a.user_id = b.id
INNER JOIN users c
ON a.mark_id = c.id
and you can access
$result['User_name']
$result['mark_name']
Hey guys need some more help
I have 3 tables USERS, PROFILEINTERESTS and INTERESTS
profile interests has the two foreign keys which link users and interests, they are just done by ID.
I have this so far
$statement = "SELECT
InterestID
FROM
`ProfileInterests`
WHERE
userID = '$profile'";
Now I want it so that it selects from Interests where what it gets from that query is the result.
So say that gives out 3 numbers
1
3
4
I want it to search the Interests table where ID is = to those...I just don't know how to physically write it in PHP...
Please help.
Using a JOIN:
Best option if you need values from the PROFILEINTERESTS table.
SELECT DISTINCT i.*
FROM INTERESTS i
JOIN PROFILEINTERESTS pi ON pi.interests_id = i.interests_id
WHERE pi.userid = $profileid
Using EXISTS:
SELECT i.*
FROM INTERESTS i
WHERE EXISTS (SELECT NULL
FROM PROFILEINTERESTS pi
WHERE pi.interests_id = i.interests_id
AND pi.userid = $profileid)
Using IN:
SELECT i.*
FROM INTERESTS i
WHERE i.interests_id IN (SELECT pi.interests_id
FROM PROFILEINTERESTS pi
WHERE pi.userid = $profileid)
You are on the right track, lets say you execute the query above using this PHP code:
$statement = mysql_query("SELECT InterestID FROM `ProfileInterests`
WHERE userID = '$profile'");
Then you can use a PHP loop to dynamically generate an SQL statement that will pull the desired IDs from a second table. So, for example, continuing the code above:
$SQL = "";
while ($statementLoop = mysql_fetch_assoc($statement)) {
//Note the extra space on the end of the query
$SQL .= "`id` = '{$statementLoop['InterestID']}' OR ";
}
//Trim the " OR " off the end of the query
$SQL = rtrim($SQL, " OR ");
//Now run the dynamic SQL, using the query generated above
$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `table2` WHERE {$SQL}")
I haven't tested the code, but it should work. So, this code will generate SQL like this:
SELECT * FROM `table2` WHERE `id` = '1' OR `id` = '3' OR `id` = '4'
Hope that helps,

Most likely you want to join the tables
select
i.Name
from
ProfileInterests p
inner join
interests i
on
p.interestid = i.interestid
where
p.userid = 1
ok here is my php and mysql code:
where it is bold i wanted to the the uid from the online table and if it in there
where online.uid = '' i needed so it put the uid in there.
$sql = ("select accounts.id,
accounts.tgid,
accounts.lastactivity,
cometchat_status.message,
cometchat_status.status,
**online.uid**
from friends_list join accounts
on friends_list.fid = accounts.id
left join cometchat_status
on accounts.id = cometchat_status.userid
where friends_list.status = '1'
and **online.uid = ''**
and friends_list.uid = '".mysql_real_escape_string($userid)."'
order by tgid asc");
#sledge identifies the problem in his comment above (I'm not sure why he didn't post an answer).
You are selecting a column from the online table, but you don't include it in your FROM clause. You have to query from a table in order to reference its columns in other parts of the query. For example:
$sql = ("select accounts.id,
accounts.tgid,
accounts.lastactivity,
cometchat_status.message,
cometchat_status.status,
online.uid
from friends_list
join accounts on friends_list.fid = accounts.id
join online on ( ??? )
left join cometchat_status
on accounts.id = cometchat_status.userid
where friends_list.status = '1'
and online.uid = ''
and friends_list.uid = '".mysql_real_escape_string($userid)."'
order by tgid asc");
You need to fill in the join condition, because there's not enough information in your original post to infer how the online table is related to other tables.
PS: Kudos for using mysql_real_escape_string().
