table one structure {node}:

nid        type             title                 created

10          provider        test one              1298107010
11          provider        test two              1298107555    
12          provider        example one            1300524695 
13          provider        example two            1298081391

table two structure {votingapi_vote}:

content_id      value    value_type

10                1          option
10                 0          option
11                 1          option
12                 0          option
15                 3          percent
15                 2          percent
16.....            0          option

i want:

get 22 titles list

...
test one
test two
example one
example two 
...

the queue order is:

first according to table 2(i want to use the count value = 1 minus the count value = 0. this is the content_id's descending rule,

then table 1 (desc the nid create time) type is provider.

ps:For each content_id, the number of rows with value=1 minus the number of rows with value=0.. each content_id has many value=0 or value=1

1, the value of nid is equals the value of content_id in table 2.

the title list queue order is:

1, first according to table 2 content_id descending the tile list(decending content_id using "For each content_id, the number of rows with value=1 minus the number of rows with value=0" )

2, because table2 maybe less than 22 records and has the same value when the number of rows with value=1 minus the number of rows with value=0. when emerge this condition. using the created field in table 1 to descending the tile

your explanation makes very little sense

this is as close as i got to understanding your very weird requirements --

SELECT 1 AS seq
     , content_id AS nid
     , COUNT(CASE WHEN value = 1
                  THEN 0 ELSE NULL END) -
       COUNT(CASE WHEN value = 0
                  THEN 1 ELSE NULL END) AS sort_value
  FROM votingapi_vote
UNION ALL
SELECT 2 AS seq
     , nid
     , created AS sort_value
  FROM node
 WHERE type = 'provider'
ORDER
    BY seq
     , id DESC
     , sort_value DESC LIMIT 22

table two structure {votingapi_vote}:
Code:

content_id      value    value_type

10                1          option
10                 0          option
11                 1          option
12                 0          option
15                 3          percent
15                 2          percent
16.....            0          option

output the content_id field and descending it, the rule is according to the value(the count of each content_id 's value=1 minus the count of each content_id 's value=0 ,each content_id has many value=0 or value=1). where value_type=option.

namely:For each content_id, the number of rows with value=1 minus the number of rows with value=0

is there a way to get that?

[r937]

namely:For each content_id, the number of rows with value=1 minus the number of rows with value=0

SELECT content_id 
     , COUNT(CASE WHEN value = 1
                  THEN 0 ELSE NULL END) -
       COUNT(CASE WHEN value = 0
                  THEN 1 ELSE NULL END) AS diff
  FROM votingapi_vote
GROUP
    BY content_id

it appears i forgot the GROUP BY clause earlier,,,

i doesn't understand this well. could you explain it . many thanks.

COUNT(CASE WHEN value = 1
THEN 0 ELSE NULL END) -
COUNT(CASE WHEN value = 0
THEN 1 ELSE NULL END) AS diff

[r937]

the 1st COUNT function counts the number of 1 values

the 2nd COUNT function counts the number of 0 values

then the number of 0's is subtracted from the number of 1's, and the result is called "diff"
