我们知道从MySQL表中使用SQL SELECT 语句来读取数据。
如果我们需要对读取的数据进行排序,我们就可以使用MySQL的 ORDER BY 子句来设定你想按哪个字段哪中方式来进行排序,再返回搜索结果。
本章节使用的数据库结构及数据下载:MySQL.sql
以下是SQL SELECT 语句使用 ORDER BY 子句将查询数据排序后再返回数据:
SELECT field1, field2,...fieldN FROM table_name1, table_name2...
ORDER BY field1, [field2...] [ASC [DESC]]
尝试以下实例,结果将按升序排列
root@host# mysql -u root -p password;
Enter password:
mysql> use W3CSCHOOL;
Database changed
mysql> SELECT * from w3cschool_tbl ORDER BY w3cschool_author ASC;
+-------------+----------------+-----------------+-----------------+
| w3cschool_id | w3cschool_title | w3cschool_author | submission_date |
+-------------+----------------+-----------------+-----------------+

你可以使用PHP函数的mysql_query()及相同的SQL SELECT 带上 ORDER BY 子句的命令来获取数据。 该函数用于执行SQL命令,然后通过 PHP 函数 mysql_fetch_array() 来输出所有查询的数据。
<?php
$dbhost = 'localhost:3036';
$dbuser = 'root';
$dbpass = 'rootpassword';
$conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass);
if(! $conn ){
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
$sql = 'SELECT w3cschool_id, w3cschool_title,
w3cschool_author, submission_date
FROM w3cschool_tbl
ORDER BY w3cschool_author DESC';
mysql_select_db('W3CSCHOOL');
$retval = mysql_query( $sql, $conn );
if(! $retval ){
die('Could not get data: ' . mysql_error());
}
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($retval, MYSQL_ASSOC)){
echo "Tutorial ID :{$row['w3cschool_id']}
".
"Title: {$row['w3cschool_title']}
".
"Author: {$row['w3cschool_author']}
".
"Submission Date : {$row['submission_date']}
".
"--------------------------------
";
}
echo "Fetched data successfully\n";
mysql_close($conn);
?>
