Hi All
I am sure this problem is due to the mysql query, so I hope it is ok to post it here, apologies if not ..
I am trying to receive results from my database, based on several conditions, however - I keep getting unexpected results
SELECT * FROM users WHERE state = "FL OR state = "NY" OR state = "KY"
+OR state = "Invalid" AND active != "0" ORDER BY user_id ASC LIMIT 0,
+20
The key element in that query is the active != "0" because it is returning users regardless of that value, however the below query works fine - it is just a bit smaller
SELECT * FROM users WHERE state = "FL OR state = "NY" AND active != "0
+" ORDER BY user_id ASC LIMIT 0, 20
The last one will return users where active != "0" but the first one will not .. I'm really unsure why.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
