I need help with my SELECT.
I got a field that can be NULL and in it there is stored a foreign-key.
SELECT * FROM beerImage WHERE beerBRewID = brewID AND beerBrandID = beerID <--- this can be NULL
So if it's NULL nothing happens.
How can I check if beerID is NOT NULL so I can use "beerBrandID = beerID"?
If you want to include records where there's no match, you need an outer join
SELECT beer.id AS beerID,
beer.barrelID AS barrelID,
beer.imageID AS imageID,
beer.title AS title,
beer.map AS map,
beer.longitude AS longitude,
beer.latitude AS latitude,
brand.name AS brandName,
brew.type AS brewType,
image.name AS imageName,
variation.name AS variationName
FROM brand, brew, image, beer
LEFT OUTER JOIN variation ON variation.ID = beer.VariationID
WHERE beer.id = %s
AND md5(beer.memberID) = %s
AND beer.review = 1
AND brand.ID = beer.brandID
AND brew.ID = beer.brewID
AND image.ID = beer.imageID
