problem with GROUP BY and ORDER BY

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

i usually use this query to display the last 10 entries from a sql table:

Code: $query = "SELECT search_time, search_keywords FROM phpbb_popsearch ORDER BY search_time DESC limit 35";
as you can see it will order the results by "search_time" so the latest entries are listed first

normally the result would be something like this:
Quotenew entry
duplicate
another entry
bla bla
348237
543543
duplicate


but now i just want to include a "GROUP BY" in this sql request
Code: $query = "SELECT search_time, search_keywords FROM phpbb_popsearch ORDER BY search_time DESC limit 35";
but with the GROUP BY my sql query isn't ordered correctly anymore.

the result would be something like this:
QuoteQuotenew entry
another entry
bla bla
348237
543543
duplicate


notice the "duplicate" entry was grouped together, but it's not in the second first position anymore ???

i was expecting a result like this:
Quotenew entry
duplicate
another entry
bla bla
348237
543543

Since entry called "duplicate" is the second last added entry....

i hope you understand what i mean
