    <p>I'm not sure If I fully understand your question, but What I'm getting is this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php //this is placed after connecting to and selecting your mysql database $query = "SELECT * FROM `stories` WHERE `showing` = 0"; $result = mysql_query($query); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { //count how many votes we have $query2 = "SELECT * FROM `votes` WHERE `item_name` = '".$row['id']."'"; //assuming item_name in votes = id in stories $result2 = mysql_query($query2); $ourCount = 0; while($row2 = mysql_fetch_array($result2)) { $ourCount = $ourCount + $row['vote_value'];//assuming vote value is where your +1 or -1 or whatever value is stored. } if($ourCount &gt;= 10) { //I'm assuming, you want to show it if the votes equal or are greater than 10... $query3 = "UPDATE `stories` SET `showing` = 1 WHERE `id` = '".$row['id']."'"; mysql_query($query); } else if($ourCount &lt;= -10) { //again i'm assuming you want to set 2 where votes is equal to or less than -10 $query3 = "UPDATE `stories` SET `showing` = 2 WHERE `id` = '".$row['id']."'"; mysql_query($query); } else { //you can really take this part out as it's redundant, but i'm placing it here anyways. $query3 = "UPDATE `stories` SET `showing` = 0 WHERE `id` = '".$row['id']."'"; mysql_query($query); } } ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>What this does is gets all rows from "stories" where "showing" = 0. Then it searches votes for any item_name with the value of the story id. From there, it adds the "item_value" which can be negative for down votes. It then figures out if the end result is greater than equal to 10, less than equal to -10, or (-10,10). It then executes the corresponding query to set the showing to 1, 2, and 0 respectively.</p> <p>Hope I understood your question properly!</p>

    2. COBut, the line $ourCount = $ourCount + $row['vote_value']; Does it sum up all votes associated with article?

    3. COYes as it's inside the while loop which is going through every vote for that item name

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.
