serial number

Hi all

I have a database of some users, but serial number was missing in the output form.

Now I want to add the serial number, but have problem.

When I made the database, I made 4 test entries to check if it works or not, when that worked then I deleted those entries.

Now when I use:

  echo "" . $row['id'] . "";

It works properly, but it starts form 5 and so on. And I want it to start form 1.

I also want my database to be ordered by names.

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM my_table ORDER BY id") 
or die(mysql_error());  

Any suggestion!

 

Thanks

I suggest you "DROP" the database and start with a new install.

The auto-increment primary key does not need to start at one. That is a human consideration.

The Database only needs a unique value. And to answer your next concern, the index key does not need to be consecutive. If you delete a key, the DB will know about it and handle the list properly.

<?php

// Make a MySQL Connection

 

// Get all the data from the "example" table

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM schooldb ORDER BY regname")

or die(mysql_error());

 

echo "

 

echo "

$ctr = 1;

 

// keeps getting the next row until there are no more to get

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))

{

echo "

 

echo "

" . $ctr . "";

echo "

" . $row['regname'] . "";

echo "
