Question

$datos = mysql_query(“SELECT * FROM usuarios LIMIT 0, 30 “);

Who is a simple MySQL query in php, but i need the result organized by date and time. There is a field in my table who has this value (automatic inserted when the user sing up in my page). So the table is something like this:

Id Name       DT
1  Domingo    2010-04-26 23:00:00
2  Cesar      2010-04-25 12:00:00
3  Nataly     2010-04-26 08:00:00

DT is a “datetime” field. How can i get the result order by new to old? Thanks!

Answer 1

Use the ORDER BY clause to order the result set. Simply specify the column and ASC for ascending or DESC for descending.

SELECT * FROM `usuarios`
ORDER BY `DT` DESC
LIMIT 0, 30
