Thanks to all that answered my last 5 or so devel questions. I have a new
one. I'm creating a new table that I want to use as a "what's new" storage
container, so it will basically have just a timestamp, a poster name, and
the message data. I want to sort these things on the page with the most
recent date first. Normally I do this in php:
$query = mysql_query("SELECT date_format(dateadded, '%M %d, %Y') AS
Readable_Date from mytable",$db);
And then:
while ($daterow = mysql_fetch_row($query)) {printf("$daterow[0]<br>")}
This prints out the dates of my entries in chronological order, from oldest
to newest. Does anyone know how to do this? Am I just an idiot and using
poor poor poor coding methodology (probably).
Thanks again to all that have been helping me here.
