I have issue getting results from two database table. here is what i have:
table A: 'courses'
math | history | geography | computer
1 | 2 | 3 | 4
and Table B
user_id | classroom_id | course
1 | 5 | 3
1 | 5 | 4
1 | 6 | 2
I returned the table A on a for each loop but I would like to check what courses the user 1 has to return true or false on any Table a columns. Any help appreciated. I need help not negative votes :(
You have your database set up wrong I believe. What you want is something like
Table_A:
PKEY | Course
1 | Math
2 | History
3 | Geography
4 | Computer
Table_B:
user_id | classroom_id | course
1 | 5 | 3
1 | 5 | 4
1 | 6 | 2
Then you could do something like
SELECT
TableA.PKEY,
TableA.Course,
TableB.user_id,
TableB.classroom_id,
TableB.course,
FROM TableA
LEFT JOIN TableB
ON TableA.PKEY = TableB.course
^^This will return the data from BOTH tables.
you see this line
ON TableA.PKEY = TableB.course
^^This is called the foreign key.
BIG GOTCHA: Make SURE that the columns for both of those ^^^ are set up EXACTLY the same. For instance, IF TableA.PKEY is an UNSIGNED INT(10), then TableB.course MUST also be UNSIGNED INT(10). They have to be identical for the join to work correctly.
