wabash Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 I have two queries $queryColor and $queryMaintenance.... I'm able to successfully echo the following queries individually: $queryColor = "SELECT actualplanttable.id,actualplanttable.common, plantcolorlinktable.plant_id, plantcolorlinktable.color_id, plantcolortable.color, plantcolortable.id FROM plantcolorlinktable INNER JOIN actualplanttable ON plantcolorlinktable.plant_id = actualplanttable.id INNER JOIN plantcolortable ON plantcolorlinktable.color_id = plantcolortable.id AND plantcolortable.color = '$color'"; $resultColor = mysql_query($queryColor) or die(mysql_error()); $queryMaintenance = "SELECT actualplanttable.id, actualplanttable.common, plantmaintenancelinktable.plant_id, plantmaintenancelinktable.maintenance_id, plantmaintenancetable.id, plantmaintenancetable.maintenance FROM plantmaintenancelinktable INNER JOIN actualplanttable ON plantmaintenancelinktable.plant_id = actualplanttable.id INNER JOIN plantmaintenancetable ON plantmaintenancelinktable.maintenance_id = plantmaintenancetable.id AND plantmaintenancetable.maintenance = '$maintenance'"; $resultMaintenance = mysql_query($queryMaintenance) or die(mysql_error()); Now, I'm looking to only echo the plants that are both = to $resultColor and $resultMaintenance I.E. I now get results for several plants that are "yellow" and several plants that are "low maintenance" from these queries. I'm looking for help to only echo results of plants that are both "yellow" and "low maintenance only". Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks Bill...

requinix Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Have you tried merging the two queries? That's pretty much all there is to do: merge the selected fields, merge the INNER JOINs, and merge the conditions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikosiko Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 any reason why you need 2 queries? test this: (no tested on mi side but should work) $justOneQuery = "SELECT actualplanttable.id, actualplanttable.common, plantcolortable.color, plantmaintenancetable.maintenance FROM actualplanttable JOIN plantcolorlinktable ON plantcolorlinktable.plant_id = actualplanttable.id JOIN plantcolortable ON plantcolorlinktable.color_id = plantcolortable.id AND plantcolortable.color = '$color' JOIN plantmaintenancelinktable ON plantmaintenancelinktable.plant_id = actualplanttable.id JOIN plantmaintenancetable ON plantmaintenancelinktable.maintenance_id = plantmaintenancetable.id AND plantmaintenancetable.maintenance = '$maintenance'"; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wabash Posted April 25, 2011 Author Share Posted April 25, 2011 Ah thanks guys. I was trying to do this earlier but couldn't find any examples of this scope and didn't know it was possible. Mikosiko your code worked perfectly thanks so much for writing that up for me! Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
