Jointure Simple:

SELECT *
FROM post AS p, category AS c
WHERE p.category_id = c.category_id;

Remarque:
les lignes où le champ « category_id » est à NULL ne sont pas apparues dans le résultat.
Les jointures complexes

SELECT *
FROM post AS p INNER JOIN category AS c
ON p.category_id = c.category_id;

SELECT *
FROM post AS p LEFT JOIN category AS c
ON p.category_id = c.category_id;

SELECT *
FROM post AS p RIGHT JOIN category AS c
ON p.category_id = c.category_id;
Outer Join (FULL JOIN) non suporté par MySql: utilizer UNION)

(
SELECT *
FROM post AS p LEFT JOIN category AS c
ON p.category_id = c.category_id
)

UNION

(
SELECT *
FROM post AS p RIGHT JOIN category AS c
ON p.category_id = c.category_id
);

Jointure avec USING

SELECT post_title
FROM post JOIN category
USING (category_id)
