RANDOM [solved]

[jaymc]

Here is the query im running to select 100 mobile numbers from a database

[b]$query = "SELECT * FROM `ibf_members` WHERE `mobilenum` !=NULL LIMIT 0,100";[/b]

However, I want to to select 100 at random, not the first 100 in the table

How can I achieve that?

$query = "SELECT * FROM `ibf_members` WHERE `mobilenum` !=NULL ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 0,100";
