lets say you have a wallpaper website and you want to know how many times a member of your website has submitted a wallpaper.
well you can use this query example for counting the number of times the user "wallpaperama" has submitted a wallpaper.
you have a database able which is called "usersdb".
is the "usersdb" database, you have a field called "userid"
the "userid" for "wallpaperama" is equals to "345"
now that you have this information, you can send this query:
$sql = "SELECT COUNT(userid) AS TOTAL FROM users WHERE userid='345'";
$results = $myrwow['userid'];
$results = $myrwow['userid'];
when you execute this query, it will show you the number of times
hope this helps
