    <p>I'm stuck with a weird situation. It goes like this:</p> <p>I have 2 tables. One is called users, which has all my user/password details, then I have another table called userFiles, which has a user ID and a fileID for a file which he has rights to.</p> <p>Now, note that 1 account can have rights to multiple files, and multiple accounts can have rights to 1 file.</p> <p>So basically, the first table has, say:</p> <ol> <li>ID: 1, name: bob, password: helloWorld</li> <li>ID: 2, name: phil, password: what'sUp?</li> </ol> <p>and in table 2, say:</p> <ol> <li>uID: 1, fID: 67</li> <li>uID: 1, fID: 68</li> <li>uID: 1, fID: 36</li> <li>uID: 2, fID: 67</li> <li>uID: 2, fID: 68</li> <li>uID: 2, fID: 102</li> </ol> <p>Now, here's what I want to do:</p> <p>I want to SELECT All the users! (in this case both!), also, I want to JOIN the other table, but I only wanna join the row where I specify a particular fID!</p> <p>For example, I wanna query for users and user right with fID 67</p> <p>I wanna get this:</p> <ol> <li>ID: 1, name: bob, password: helloWorld, uID: 1, fID: 67</li> <li>ID: 2, name: phil, password: what'sUp?, uID: 2, fID: 67</li> </ol> <p>and, for fID 102 (even if it gives a value other than NULL, that i can use in my PHP code, it's fine)</p> <ol> <li>ID: 1, name: bob, password: helloWorld, uID: NULL, fID: NULL</li> <li>ID: 2, name: phil, password: what'sUp?, uID: 2, fID: 102</li> </ol> <p>This is the query I've tried using</p> <pre><code>SELECT * FROM users LEFT JOIN userFiles ON users.ID=userFiles.uID WHERE userFiles.fID = 102 </code></pre> <p>However, this query only returns one row, while I wan't both.</p> <p>If you can't gimme a mySQL solution, try and help me out so that I can filter out results, and obtain something like what I want using PHP...</p> <p>Thanks a ton!</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
