I have three pretty simple queries that I believe could be accomplished in one query, but I can't figure it out. Here are the queries:
$idSQL = "SELECT website_id FROM websites WHERE website_url = :webURL LIMIT 1
$featureSQL = "SELECT feature_id FROM feature_website WHERE website_id = :webID";
$sql = "SELECT feature_name, feature_start, feature_end, feature_headline, feature_text, feature_photoHor, feature_photoVert, feature_photoSquare FROM features WHERE feature_id = :featID";
This gives me the expected output:
So, I tried to combine the queries (probably using the incorrect Joins) into this:
$sql = "SELECT f.feature_name, f.feature_start, f.feature_end, f.feature_headline, f.feature_text, f.feature_photoHor, f.feature_photoVert, f.feature_photoSquare FROM features LEFT JOIN feature_website fw ON f.feature_id = fw.feature_id LEFT JOIN websites w ON fw.website_id = w.website_id AND w.website_url = :webURL";
What am I missing?
Try this query:
$sql = "
SELECT f.feature_name, f.feature_start, f.feature_end, f.feature_headline, f.feature_text, f.feature_photoHor, f.feature_photoVert, f.feature_photoSquare
FROM
websites w
LEFT JOIN feature_website fw ON fw.website_id = w.website_id
LEFT JOIN features f ON f.feature_id = fw.feature_id
WHERE
w.website_url = :webURL
";
Maybe you could use regular JOIN in case you don't want to show any result if there's no feature for your website.

What I have at the moment is to match the case from law_case, as in the database scheme below.
My code:
$query1 = "SELECT * FROM law_case WHERE id =?";
$query1vals = array($_GET['id']);
$ids = $adb->selectRecords($query1, $query1vals, false);
$a = $ids['case_type_id'];
$b = $ids['funding_pref'];
#
$query2 = "SELECT type_name FROM case_type WHERE id =?";
$query2vals = array($a);
$ids1 = $adb->selectRecords($query2, $query2vals, false);
$d = $ids1['type_name'];
#
$query3 = "SELECT * FROM expertise WHERE expertise_desc =?";
$query3vals = array($d);
$ids2 = $adb->selectRecords($query3, $query3vals, false);
$c = $ids2['id'];
#
$query4 = "SELECT * FROM individual_expertise WHERE expertise_id =?";
$query4vals = array($c);
$ids3 = $adb->selectRecords($query4, $query4vals, false);
$e = $ids3['individual_id'];
#
$query5 = "SELECT * FROM individual WHERE id =?";
$query5vals = array($e);
$ids4 = $adb->selectRecords($query5, $query5vals, false);
$f = $ids4['network_member_id'];
#
$query6 = "SELECT * FROM network_member WHERE id =?";
$query6vals = array($f);
$ids5 = $adb->selectRecords($query6, $query6vals, false);
And what it does is it only gets one network_member.
I want to use INNER JOIN, JOIN or LEFT JOIN and use a while looking to get the different member_name and the URL for each network_member or who's individual has the same expertise_id from the individual_expertise table.
I'm new to JOIN and tried this code but it doesn't work:
$sql = "SELECT member_name, url
FROM individual_expertise
LEFT JOIN individual
USING (individual_id)
LEFT JOIN network_member
USING (network_member_id)
WHERE expertise_id = ?";
$ids3 = $adb->selectRecords($sql, $query4vals, false);
echo $ids3['member_name'];
You need to get an overview of JOIN types. You have to build a query using INNER, LEFT, RIGHT, FULL joins depending on your logical requirements. You can assume that INNER join is equal to && or AND operators in conditional statements, I mean records must match in both tables.
While, LEFT join will return all rows from left table of join and matched rows from right table of join. And RIGHT is inverse of LEFT.
And FULL join is an example of || or OR in operators in conditional statements. I mean either a match in both tables.
So you have to join depending on logic you require.
See here
Do you know the difference between INNER JOIN and LEFT JOIN? I think you don't. You need an INNER JOIN here.
I think this is the right solution for your question:
SELECT
network_member.member_name,
network_member.url
FROM
network_member
INNER JOIN
individual ON individual.network_member_id = network_member.id
INNER JOIN
individual_expertise ON individual_expertise.individual_id = individual.id
WHERE
individual_expertise.expertise_id = ?
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 am creating a dashboard to keep me updated on call agent status.an agent will have multiple records in the log. I need to pull the most recent status from the agent log. The only way I have found is to query the agent table to pull the agents with status changes made today and then query the agent log table to pull the most recent status.
is there a way to combine the two queries.? Here are my queries
$sql_get_agents = "SELECT id FROM agent WHERE lastchange LIKE '{$today}%'";
if($dta = mysql_query($sql_get_agents)){
while($agent = mysql_fetch_assoc($dta)){
$curr_agent[] = $agent;
}
foreach($curr_agent as $agents_online){
$get_status_sql = "SELECT a.firstname,a.lastname,al.agentid,al.agent_statusid,s.id as statusid,s.status,MAX(al.datetime) as datetime FROM agent_log al
INNER JOIN agent a ON al.agentid = a.id
INNER JOIN agent_status s ON a.agent_statusid = s.id
WHERE al.agentid = '{$agents_online['id']}'";
if($dta2 = mysql_query($get_status_sql)){
while($agent_status = mysql_fetch_assoc($dta2)){
$curr_status[] = $agent_status;
}
}
}//end for each
return $curr_status;
}//end if
Why don't you join the 2 queries into one adding the WHERE lastchange LIKE '{$today}%' condition in the second query?
Using the IN clause should work :
"SELECT a.firstname,a.lastname,al.agentid,al.agent_statusid,s.id as statusid,s.status,MAX(al.datetime) as datetime FROM agent_log al
INNER JOIN agent a ON al.agentid = a.id
INNER JOIN agent_status s ON a.agent_statusid = s.id
WHERE al.agentid IN (SELECT id FROM agent WHERE lastchange LIKE '{$today}%');
You were close with what you have. This will get rid of the need to do both queries, or query in a loop.
edit: adding example code to loop over the results as well.
edit2: changed query.
$query = "SELECT
a.firstname,
a.lastname,
al.agentid,
al.agent_statusid,
s.id as statusid,
s.status,
MAX(al.datetime) as datetime
FROM agent a
LEFT JOIN agent_log al ON al.agentid = a.id
LEFT JOIN agent_status s ON a.agent_statusid = s.id
WHERE a.lastchange LIKE '{$today}%'";
$status = array();
$results = mysql_query( $query );
while( $agent = mysql_fetch_assoc( $results ) )
$status[] = $agent;
print_r( $status );
I have 2 tables, the unique id's in each table are the same in both tables.
How do I go about joining the data from both tables together in php?
When I normally pull data I do it like this:
$get_board_array = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM posts WHERE user_id_to = '$id' ");
while($posts = mysql_fetch_array($get_board_array))
{
$post_id = $get_post['post_id'];
$html_output .= "<p>".$post_id."</p>";
}
As for pulling the data from separate tables and not getting it all mixed up, I was thinking of doing something like this:
$get_arrayA = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM tableA WHERE age = '36' ");
while($dataA = mysql_fetch_array($get_arrayA))
{
$dataA_id = $dataA['id'];
$dataA_firstName = $dataA['FirstName'];
foreach($dataA_id)
{
$get_arrayB = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM tableB where id='".$dataA_id."'");
while($dataB = mysql_fetch_array($get_arrayB))
{
$dataB_lastName = $dataB['LastName'];
$html_output .= "<p>".$dataA_firstName.$dataB_lastName"</p>";
echo $html_output;
}
}
}
Or would this be just too weird of a thing?
I know how to do it within SQL using inner join but how do I do something like that in PHP and output html?
It is because of you misguide use of wildcard (*) characters. STOP THAT !! This is what happens when arrogant php developers imagine that they do not need to learn SQL. If you need something , then select it.
SELECT
foo.foo_id,
foo.data as paramX ,
bar.type,
bar.something_else
FROM foo
INNER JOIN bar USING (foo_id)
WHERE
foo.state = 'open'
AND bar.type = 3
This (I'm just guessing the schema and your needs) could be a better query for your situation:
SELECT a.id,a.FirstName,b.LastName
FROM tableA a
JOIN tableB b ON b.id = a.id
WHERE a.age = '36'
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
