[SOLVED] Weird SELECT Issues

Recommended Posts

I have a bulletin system on one o f my website's and it seemed to work semi-fine after some crap I had to go through. haha. but the following code, selects all your friends, then all the bulletins that were posted by your friiends, now it SHOULD have the most recent posted first, but it shows the bulletins bassed on User ID number, which I do not see why it's doing that.

 

Thanks for Any Help!

 

<table cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2" width="305" class="menuBlue">
<tr>
<td width="25%"><b>From</b></td width="25%"><td><b>Date</b></td><td width="50%"><b>Subject</b></td>
</tr>
<?php
$bulletin = "1";

if($bulletin == "1"){
$user = $_SESSION[id];
$queryF="SELECT friend FROM friends WHERE `username` = '$user' AND `accepted` = 'yes'"; // GET ALL YOUR FRIENDS
$resultF=mysql_query($queryF) or die(mysql_error());
while($array1=mysql_fetch_assoc($resultF)){
$POSTER=$array1['friend']; // Friends ID numbers


$queryB="SELECT * FROM `bulletins` WHERE `posterid` = '$POSTER' ORDER BY id DESC"; //GET BULLETINS POSTED BY YOUR FRIENDS
$resultB=mysql_query($queryB) or die(mysql_error());


while($array=mysql_fetch_array($resultB)){


?>
<tr>
<td id="bulletins" bgcolor="#D6EAFE">
<b><a class="blue" href="http://profiles.profileflip.com/index.php?id=<?php echo $array['posterid']; ?>"><?php echo stripslashes(stripslashes($array['postername'])); ?></a></b>
</td>
<td id="bulletins" bgcolor="#D6EAFE">
<?php 

$now=time();
$dateNow = date("M. d, Y",$now);
$dateThen= date("M. d, Y",$array['date']);
$thenTime = date("g:i",$array['date']);

if($dateNow == $dateThen){ 
echo "Today at " . $thenTime; 
}else{ 
echo $dateThen;
} 

?>
</td>
<td id="bulletins" bgcolor="#D6EAFE">
<a href="showBulletin.php?id=<?php echo $array[id]; ?>" class="blue"><?php echo stripslashes(stripslashes($array['subject'])); ?></a>
</td>
</tr>
<?php
}
}
}else{
?>
<tr bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<td colspan="3">
<b>Bulletins are down for maintanance!</b>
</tr>
<?php
}
?>
</table>

$queryB="SELECT * FROM `bulletins` WHERE `posterid` = '$POSTER' ORDER BY id DESC"; //GET BULLETINS POSTED BY YOUR FRIENDS

 

change it to

 

$queryB="SELECT * FROM `bulletins` WHERE `posterid` = '$POSTER' ORDER BY dateposted DESC"; //GET BULLETINS POSTED BY YOUR FRIENDS

 

change dateposted to whatever you have the time/date it was posted set as.
