Mysql/php select using 2 tables and search information from them?

Now we're getting somewhere! You need to give as much information as possible to get specific (and therefore helpful) answers. Now that that you have edited your post to add your code, we can see where you're going wrong.

To start with, you have some basic errors before we even get to querying the database.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
