I have a query like this: SELECT title,id FROM table1 WHERE id IN (‘2′,’7′,’4′,’10’)

I have a query like this: 

SELECT title,id FROM table1 WHERE id IN ('2','7','4','10')

The result set is ordered by id by default, but I need it in the exact order of numbers in above set.

How can I achieve this?

    The FIELD() function should be able to do this:

    SELECT
    title, id
FROM
    table1
WHERE
    id IN ('2', '7', '4', '10')
ORDER BY FIELD(id, '2', '7', '4', '10')

    See also MySQL sort after argument in IN().
