My real concern is that $theHugeListOfIncidentIds keeps growing and is used in the "Calls.id IN ($theHugeListOfIncidentIds)". Even if the $theHugeListOfIncidentIds was replaced with an actual MySQL query instead of first being processed by PHP, I think that is a bad approach (but maybe that is the solution if I only change this query and do not change/add columns or states). -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
