Hello, I recently learnt that with the code as stated below, I can select one row: $query = "SELECT * FROM polls ORDER BY pollID ASC LIMIT 0,1"; However as far as I could figure out, I can only select the top row or tell it at what rownumber to start and end. What if I wanted to select the bottom row? Would I have to do an extra query to count the rows and then select it with LIMIT? Or is there a way to do this without an extra query? thx, Hans
