updateing random rows
Ok I'm having problems with a UPDATE command; it seems to be the LIMIT as it works with out.
The error I get is:
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'ORDER BY RAND()' at line 1
And the script is:
mysql_query("UPDATE `table` SET `column` = 'new value' WHERE ` column ` = 'value' AND `column` = '1' LIMIT " . $limitingVar . " ORDER BY RAND()") or die(mysql_error());
Anyone have any ideas?
