Mysql Ordering Query

Hello I want to run a query to get the last five records from a table, but in reverse order. Currently I have:

$query = "SELECT * FROM Table ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 5"; 

which isn't quite what I want.

For example if the last five records are

15 16 17 18 19

I want them returned as

15 16 17 18 19

Not 19 18 17 16 15 which is what the above does.

How do开发者_开发问答 I achieve this? If I change DESC to ASC it gives 1 2 3 4 5 so that doesn't work either.

Try a sub query:

SELECT *
FROM (SELECT * FROM Table ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 5) AS tmp
ORDER BY id ASC

You can use a sub-select to do that:

SELECT * FROM (SELECT * FROM table ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 5) AS t ORDER BY id

SELECT * FROM (SELECT * FROM Table ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 5) T1 ORDER BY id ASC;
