Question

I have this sql:

SELECT 
 m.member_id,
 m.login, 
 p.type 
FROM 
 permissions p
INNER JOIN members m ON p.member_id = m.member_id
WHERE 
 K_id = '$kid' 
ORDER BY p.type DESC

what I want to do is if p.type = 2 wrap in div id=2, and if p.type = 1 wrap in div id=1. How can this be done after a join operation?

Answer 1

I believe you’re after the CASE statement

SELECT 
 m.member_id,
 m.login, 
 p.type,
 CASE p.type 
   WHEN 1 THEN '<div id=1>' 
   WHEN 2 THEN '<div id=2>'
 END as MyDiv
FROM 
 permissions p
INNER JOIN members m ON p.member_id = m.member_id
WHERE 
 K_id = '$kid' 
ORDER BY p.type DESC
