the182guy Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 I want to pull the mysql data in an alphabetical order suburbz. This code is not getting the results in an alphabetical order. Please help. $SomeVar = $_POST['disloc']; $query = "SELECT * FROM books WHERE statez = '".$SomeVar."' ORDER BY suburbz ASC"; $results = mysql_query($query); Use mysql_error() to get a description of the problem. It's most likely either the table or a field name is wrong or the data that is being posted contains bad chars and is causing the query to break due to not escaping the string before putting it in the query.

chintansshah Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Can you tell me what you get in $_POST['disloc']? No data found then problem with your input. Please try query without WHERE, if you get correct output what you expect then you have problem with inputs. $query = "SELECT * FROM books ORDER BY suburbz ASC"; $results = mysql_query($query); Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/213356-display-data-by-alphabetical-order/#findComment-1110866 Share on other sites More sharing options...
