Theres something wrong coz its not working as expected... I followed instructions and created a table like this: CREATE TABLE test_last_visitors ( profile_id int(10) default NULL, user_id int(10) default NULL, ttimestamp timestamp(14) NOT NULL) TYPE=MyISAM; then I ran this 5 times: (logic being: test with 5, if it works go with 10 or more) :-) insert into `test_last_visitors` values(1,1,now()); then from my php script (test_last_visitors.php) I ran this test SQL: $SQL = "UPDATE test_last_visitors SET profile_id=".$profile_id.", user_id=user_id+1, ttimestamp=now() WHERE profile_id=1 ORDER BY ttimestamp ASC LIMIT 1"; The first 5 times it works perfectly, then after that it updates only the latest record over and over again :-( I tried playing with the ASC and DESC, MIN and MAX....no joy. Any idea whats wrong? Thanks, Ryan -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
