Select From 2 Table With ID AND ParentID - between

Question

I have 2 table :
1.message
2.replaytomessage
tables have 2 same filed :
1.title
2.matn
in message store topic and in replaytomessage store replay to topic
replaytomessage link to message with parentmid filed
i want write search in both table for example i search 'test' , select query find in title & matn in message and replaytomessage
i write this query :
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM message inner Join replaytomessage On message.mid = replaytomessage.parentmid WHERE message.matn LIKE '%$qfind%' OR message.title LIKE '%$qfind%' ORDER BY message.mid DESC LIMIT $start, $per_page") or die(mysql_error());
but in result show replaytomessage data or no correct title...
this is my While :
while($row = mysql_fetch_array( $result )) {
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td width = '300'>";
$title = mysql_real_escape_string($row['title']);
$mid = intval($row['mid']);
$member = intval($row['member_id']);
echo "<a href = 'message.php?mid=$mid'>$title</a>";
echo "</td> ";
}

Answer 1

I haven't entirely understood what you are trying to achieve, but my suggestion would be to write the query in a database (MySQL?) client until you get the results you are expecting, and then translate into code (PHP?).
From what I think I understand, you need to give aliases to your columns to retrieve the correct data:
SELECT message.title as messagetitle, replaytomessage.title as replaytitle,
message.mid as messagemid, replaytomessage.mid as replaymid,
message.member_id as messagememberid, replaytomessage.member_id as replaymemberid
FROM message ...
then you can use the aliases to get the data from the table that you want

Answer 2

I have a ticket system with php/mysql , i want search in topics and answer top topic tables.
topic store in message table and answer to topic store in replaytomessage
for example when i searching 'test' word , i want show result from both table(message,replaytomessage) , maybe someone send topic Included 'test' word or someone answer to topic Included 'test' word.
I have 2 table : 1.message 2.replaytomessage
tables have 2 same filed : 1.title 2.matn
in message store topic and in replaytomessage store replay to topic data , replaytomessage link to message with parentmid filed
i dont know i must user UNION OR Join!
