Fixed Records From Random Category

Recommended Posts

I'm not very well taught on MySQL so i have this problem coming in. I have three tables, lets say, parent and child.

 

PARENT

parentid

parentname

 

CHILD

childid

parentid

childname

 

CHILDINFO

childid

bigbiohere

anothercolumnhereformisc_info_and_so_on

 

My Problem:

I want to select one random parent and then list its child at least 5 child with the bio description. Is this possible?

Please help me out.

 

THANKS!

Hmmm, that was just an example but the actual database design can't be made into what you have suggested. No question about the actual design, it's correctly implemented.

 

How to do the subqueries for that one? Two queries must not be done due to the kind of software I'm modifying.
