I cannot seem to get a SELECT COUNT for a query from fields in two different tables and a WHERE clause. Does anyone know if this is not possible with php/mysql or am I doing something wrong? I have tried a number of variations on the following code: $sql = "SELECT COUNT(*), bandid, bandname, genre FROM bands, genre WHERE genre.genreid=$g AND bands.genreid=genre.genreid ORDER BY bandname ASC"; $gen = mysql_fetch_row(mysql_query($sql)); echo $gen[0]; I know from documentation that COUNT works with WHERE clauses...but also from two tables?
