It was the first thing i tried. cheking and doing repairs resulted in nothing. question, is there a way to do a Left join with a WHERE clause in mysql. maybe there is a way to circumvent the need for an Order by to a Join clause. I think that an Order by without using left joins should work.(don't ask me why, i don't know. i just tried empirically some queries).
