So what i got going on is a database that has, things about a video game, including the image location. what i want to do is have a nav bar up top, so the user can select a differnt way of sorting the mysql result, from like ASC to DESC, or sort by genre. I hope someone can help.

 

thanx

You can make use of $_GET['var'], then at your query just use something like

$type=$_GET['type'];
$arrange=$_GET['arrange'];
mysql("SELECT name FROM rank ORDER BY '$type' '$arrange'");

 

That's just a rough idea, remember to make it secure too if not you will get SQL Injected for sure.
