Answer 1

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * from rests  WHERE flag = '1' ORDER BY name asc LIMIT 0 , 20");

Answer 2

You cannot have the ORDER BY clause before WHERE clause.

Refer to the MySQL select syntax for the correct order of various clauses.

Try this:

SELECT * from rests WHERE flag = '1' ORDER BY name asc LIMIT 0 , 20

Also Ordering in ascending is default, you may drop the asc .

Answer 3

The ORDER BY clause must be after the WHERE clause. That's all it is.

Answer 4

ORDER BY在WHERE和LIMIT之后。

Answer 5

WHERE之前去ORDER BY 。
