DiscoTrio Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 So im making a php button to click (like an up or down arrow) to re-order a table but first I need a way to re-assign the primary key 'id' that is auto-increment. Heres a quick look at the table: idmediatitlecontenttext 1photoSample item 1http://media-cdn.tripadvisor.com/media/photo-s/00/...Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing... 2videoSample item 2media/himmler-poznan-large.flvIn quis nisi tellus, ut gravida elit. Sed aliquet,... So anyways see the id? Its auto increment and primary... I need a sql statement to switch the two numbers that I can run from php variables. Thank you.

premiso Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 You should be able to run an UPDATE on the primary and auto_increment id, albiet it is generally not recommended, instead it would be recommended to have a separate column for "order" and then order it by that and you can use that to display it.
