I'm working on a little system for SecondLife which involves a bit of heavy use of databases & I've run into a problem I can't for the life of me solve.
I'm trying to run a query that selects an entire row based on two different column values. I'm using the $_GET[''] call to identify which details I need, and then I need to pull all the data from the entire row and echo it onto a blank page.
Now, I got it to work at first, but it was pulling ALL the rows created by a UUID and echoing them, when I only needed a specific. Then I tried to get it to work with a second identifier (which is a column called 'field' for the purpose of testing), and that's pretty much where I lost it.
I just need to select one row that has two exact values, and I need it to be draconian so it only selects a row that has both and not just one of the two.
Any ideas?
