Well... I had a thought...
you can do a count query
SELECT user, count(visitor) as visitor_count FROM profile_visit GROUP BY user;
then you have a recordset like...
user count(visitor)
adam 9
ben 12
grab the recordset in php
while($object= mysql_fetch_object($result))
{
if($object->visitor_count > 10)
{
//SELECT the least recent visit_time
$query = "SELECT visit_time FROM profile_visit WHERE user=' "
.$object->user. " ' LIMIT 9,10";
$result = mysql_query($query);
list($visit_time) = mysql_fetch_row($result);
//DELETE anything that is less recent than $visit_time, the
visit time for anything before the 10th most recent visit.
$query = "DELETE FROM profile_visit WHERE user=' "
.$object->user." AND visit_time < '$visit_time'";
}
}
it's probably not very streamlined, but it should work.
