Staslab query for Frank

[mikezone13]

Hey Frank - great program you've got, just wish my webhost would allow the version of MySQL you need to run it on my webserver so I could tinker around with it.

Anyway, on this page (NJ Draft History Index Page), why are pitchers always listed twice (i.e. Bob Jones is listed twice in my top 10 next to 2015 and Top Draftees by round. Is this because they have a VORP for pitching and hitting? Or is it a bug?

It's not a particularly new version of MySQL.  That's pretty lame.

Yes, it's separating out their contributions with the bat from on the mound.  I'll clean that up at some point as it looks kinda silly.

Yeah their response to me was "Sorry, but there is no plan to upgrade the MYSQL Versions on the servers for now. If we upgrade the MYSQL Version on a Server, it will AFFECT all customers website because our servers are Shared servers. So, the websites which are not compatible with higher MYSQL Version will not work properly. Hope you understand."

The web server I'm on is currently running:
PHP version    5.3.26
MySQL version 5.1.72-cll

I assume it's not doable?

And good to hear it's not a bug with the pitcher listed twice . Those draft history areas are pretty cool to be honest.

You know, it might work with that version of MySQL. I can't remember exactly what changed from 5.1 to 5.2

OK - I guess I can only try. A little task for me over the coming weeks then
