I don't know what you mean -- rows are in arbitrary order unless you specify an order by clause.

Sorry, I all I see is PHP code. Echo actual SQL queries, with sample output and desired output.

Yes, but it's evil -- performance losses all over the place. If you're certain you won't exceed 65kB, don't use TEXT.

case when placement < 5 then number_of_entrants/placement when placement = 5 then 0 else 0 end

Combine how?

Sorry, I don't follow.

Well then you'll have to revoke the other privileges -- easier to revoke all, the grant only the ones you want.

A few joins would do the trick, too.

You can actually use "0" as a shorthand for a zeroed-out date -- comes in handy if you ever change to a DATETIME later.

Depends on the length -- these days, varchar stores up to 65kB, so it's the best choice, unless you have binary data.

Examples of what? the DATETIME column type?

By "edit", you mean update/insert/delete? "All" is very dangerious.

Huh? Search how?

That's quite a bit to chew off at once. You could have table with columns for all of that info, plus another few with city_id. Not sure what you mean by "template" or "automatic". And auto-increment is used for getting unique number for each row in a given table.

Sorry, I won't visit random links -- you'll have to narrow down the problem further.

That's hard to believe --mysql_fetch_assoc() should work just fine here.

If there can be multiple entities for a given related record, then multiple tables in the preferred way to go.

Actually, you just want a join here: $articles = mysql_query("SELECT `post_title`, `post_content` FROM `wp_posts` JOIN `wp_term_relationships`ON ( `wp_term_relationships`.`object_id` = `wp_posts`.`ID` ) WHERE `term_taxonomy_id`='" . $term_taxonomy_id[0] . "'");

I don't follow -- what's the problem?

What changed it/

Well, technically, you don't need a begin/end for such a simple statement.

Sorry, I don't follow.

Well, with a CASE statement, you can do anything.

Then you have a one-to-many relationshiop.

Try the equivalent select for testing.
