mike12255 Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 I got two statments: "SELECT id FROM approvednotes WHERE authoer = '$username'"; "SELECT nid FROM usersdownloaded WHERE username - '$author'"; and then once I get results from both of those I want to search approved notes again using only the matches from the statements above and what I want to select this time is "SELECT * FROM approvednotes WHERE md5 ='$md5'"; But I dont actually want to search all the listings just the ones that returned true in the first two statements, is there a way to join these three statements into one? I hope I made myself clear if not let me know and ill try to reexplain.

spec36 Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Look up LEFT JOIN in the mysql manual that corresponds to your mysql version. I think that will explain what you are trying to do.
