premiso Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 SELECT City, State, Country FROM users ORDER BY Country, State, City Should be what you are looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leequalls Posted December 25, 2009 Author Share Posted December 25, 2009 is this correct? $personality = mysql_query("select * from rp_staff ORDER BY `rp_staff`.`country`,`rp_staff`.`state,`rp_staff`.`city` ASC"); I am getting an error: Warning: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/party/public_html/en/personalities.php on line 101 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
premiso Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 To find the error use this: $personality = mysql_query("select * from rp_staff ORDER BY `rp_staff`.`country`,`rp_staff`.`state,`rp_staff`.`city` ASC") or trigger_error("Query Failed: " . mysql_error()); And see what error is returned from the query.
