I have three tables I need to use in a search, Movies, Reviews, and Votes. I want to use the LIKE function for Movie.Title and Review.Subject and order them by the amount of the most votes for each match.
In the Votes table there is a ReviewID, UserID, IsGood. Every time a user votes, an insert is done with the MovieID, UserID, and 1 or 0 for the IsGood, 1 meaning good 0 meaning bad.
So one review may have 0 good and bad votes, or 5 good and 3 bad, etc. I would like to show the results in the following order:
Review 1 - 10Good / 3Bad
Review 2 - 4Good / 3Bad
Review 3 - 0Good / 0Bad
The matches with the most good votes at top, the ones with the most bad votes at the bottom.
This is the mysql query I wrote up and is obviously wrong, but hoping someone can help me out:
mysql_query("
SELECT m.Title, r.Subject, v.ReviewID FROM Movies m
LEFT JOIN Reviews r
ON m.ID=r.MovieID
INNER JOIN Votes v
ON r.ID=v.ReviewID
WHERE (m.Title LIKE '%" . $search . "%'
OR r.Subject LIKE '%" . $search . "%')
ORDER BY MAX(COUNT(v.IsGood='1')) LIMIT 10")or die(mysql_error());
