Question

I have kind of a “problem” that I do not know how it happened. If I add rows to my table via php it just adds them randomly somewhere. But I want them to be added on top. Instead it justs add them all over the table.

 $name = ($_GET["name"]);
 $sql = "INSERT INTO $DB_Table VALUES('$name')";

 $number = ($_GET["number"]);
 $sql = "INSERT INTO $DB_Table VALUES('$number')";

 $con = mysql_connect($DB_HostName,$DB_User,$DB_Pass) or die (mysql_error()); 
 mysql_select_db($DB_Name,$con) or die(mysql_error()); 

 mysql_query("INSERT INTO $DB_Table (Name,number)
 VALUES ('$name','$m_yolo')");



 $res = mysql_query($sql,$con) or die(mysql_error());


        mysql_close($con);
if ($res) {
    echo "success";
}else{
    echo "faild";
}// end else
?>
