getting most records by count

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Code: [Select]<?php

$connect = mysql_connect("localhost","damgears_evil","damgears");
mysql_select_db("damgears_evil");
$queryreg = mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM titles WHERE fname = '$fname' && lname = '$lname' ");
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($queryreg))
{
$amountitles = $row[0];
$dbname = $row['fname'];
echo "$amoutitles $dbname";
}
?>


Basically what i want to do is if ther is a record

Jeff Smith
Jeff Smith
Jeff Smith
John Adams
John Adams
Susan Adams
Jeff Smith

I want it to count it and order it by count so the person with the highest amount of records then displays

$amounttitles - $dbname

and limit to top 10.

thanks
