I want to link two tables together to create a list. The unique value
loppnum appears in both tables. I need to look up its corresponding value
for each entry.
table1 has 2 cols
A Jag
D Cht
E Lio
P Mkn
Q Res
table2 has 2 cols
MN A
PL D
RT E
PO P
LM D
NB D
In the first table both values are unique
In the second table the first value is Unique
Now I need to display a list of data in this form
MN Jag (Displays second table data and looks up value of A in first table)
PL Cht (Displays second table data and looks up value of D in first table)
RT Lio (Displays second table data and looks up value of E in first table)
PO Mkn (Displays second table data and looks up value of P in first table)
LM Cht (Displays second table data and looks up value of D in first table)
NB Cht (Displays second table data and looks up value of D in first table)
I have made a start
$upgcollect='SELECT * FROM table1 ORDER BY scfmfor';
$upg1=mysql_query($upgcollect);
$ml_collect='SELECT * FROM table2 ORDER BY loppnmn';
$upg2=mysql_query($ml_collect);
That gives me two variables with complete table data.
The rest of this is beyond me at the moment.
Can someone please point me in the right direction.
