Hi, I'm having this Mysql query, It works:
SELECT
nom
,prenom
,(SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(category_en) FROM
(SELECT DISTINCT category_en FROM categories c WHERE id IN
(SELECT DISTINCT category_id FROM m3allems_to_categories m2c WHERE m3allem_id = 37)
) cS
) categories
,(SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(area_en) FROM
(SELECT DISTINCT area_en FROM areas c WHERE id IN
(SELECT DISTINCT area_id FROM m3allems_to_areas m2a WHERE m3allem_id = 37)
) aSq
) areas
FROM m3allems m
WHERE m.id = 37
The result is:
nom prenom categories areas
Man Multi Carpentry,Paint,Walls Beirut,Baalbak,Saida
It works correclty, but only when i hardcode into the query the id that I want (37).
I want it to work for all entries in the m3allem table, so I try this:
SELECT
nom
,prenom
,(SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(category_en) FROM
(SELECT DISTINCT category_en FROM categories c WHERE id IN
(SELECT DISTINCT category_id FROM m3allems_to_categories m2c WHERE m3allem_id = m.id)
) cS
) categories
,(SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(area_en) FROM
(SELECT DISTINCT area_en FROM areas c WHERE id IN
(SELECT DISTINCT area_id FROM m3allems_to_areas m2a WHERE m3allem_id = m.id)
) aSq
) areas
FROM m3allems m
And I get an error:
Unknown column 'm.id' in 'where
clause'
Why?
From the MySql manual:
13.2.8.7. Correlated Subqueries
[...]
Scoping rule: MySQL evaluates from inside to outside.
So... do this not work when the subquery is in a SELECT section? I did not read anything about that.
Does anyone know? What should I do? It took me a long time to build this query... I know it's a monster query but it gets what I want in a single query, and I am so close to getting it to work!
Can anyone help?
