How do I order the results of my query?


To order the results, use the ORDER BY wording.

So if you have a list of first names, you will often want to order them alphabetically and not in the jumbled format that they come out of the database. So here's how to do it:

<?php
$atozofnames 
mysql_query("SELECT firstname FROM names ORDER BY firstname");
?>
