This is something dumb I am doing but:
Trying to pull all names of publishers in db. This sql:
SELECT art.art_id,art.publisher_id,publisher.publisher_name,
FROM art
LEFT JOIN publisher
ON publisher.publisher_id=art.publisher_id
pulls (in phpmyadmin) four rows:
artID pubID Publisher_name
1 7 The New York Times: Sunday Styles
2 3 The New York Sun
3 2 Metro NY
4 3 The New York Sun
I'm trying to make a sidebar which will make links to each unique
publisher name:
while ($cartoon = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$pub_sidebar[] = "<ul class='sidebar-menu'><a class='img-link'
href='{$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}?p={$cartoon['publisher_id']}'
title=\"{$cartoon['publisher_name']}\">{$cartoon['publisher_name']}</a></ul>";
}
This prints:
The New York Times: Sunday Styles
The New York Sun
Metro NY
The New York Sun
I'd like to stop the NY Sun from appearing twice! What have i missed here?
Thanks in advance!
why are you pulling art_id and such? Just pull everything from the
publisher table, and show that...
