Follow this thread... Left to right, top to bottom and ask your
self... Did that make any sense?
Come on, who's really being childish here?
Now....
The original post was absolutely, 100% SQL query building question.
How do I "take a list of dates from a particular table field, and be
able to rank each record in the order within which in falls in those
range of dates" could apply to any RDBMS system; but how is PHP (the
subject of this newsgroup) to do that? Through MySQL, Oracle, or MSSQL
functions!
The resulting recordset could be handled by any number of programming
languages.
What is the harm in posting the original question here, in a PHP
related newsgroup? Well, if say, 2 or 3 months from now, whenever I or
any other programmer on the planet is in search of an answer similar
to Colleen's; do you think that search will begin in a PHP newsgroup?
In fact the only point to which I disagree with Jerry is that it
certainly doesn't belong in a MySQL newsqroup. It should actually be
posted in a most generic SQL newsgroup.
The proof of evidence in justifying our requests lies in your very
answer to Colleen's question. Was the answer not a simple SQL
statement that can be executed by any number of RDBMS systems and then
further process upon by any number of programming language?
For the betterment of ALL users of the usenet system, at least TRY to
put a little thought in to where to post your queries...
Thanx...
