what is a SQL query?

[datsunboy]

this whole forum is run on SQL (as far as I understand it)
an SQL querry is something the programme does when it "asks" the database something.

An SQL query is a way of talking to an SQL database like MySQL etc like the database driving this forum. Data is stored in tables (like a worksheet in excel say). In general, a join table has records that contain the unique ID's of a record in two seperate tables. That record in the join table says that a record in one table is related to a record in another table. Soo an example is a table that contains the users of this forum. Then there is a table containing all the posts in the forum. A join table will say "this post belongs to this user"

Ghats explaining it as easy as I can without being 100% factual so it puts it in a way you may understand lol.

The purpose of me adding that to the sig was to see how many other geeks are on the forum lol.
