    i have two table in my database which is the room table and roomtype table.i'm using phpmyadmin.

    room table
    room_no
    r_roomtypeID


    roomtype table
    roomtypeID
    roomtype


    how can i create a query that can select A random room_no from "room table "
    based on the roomtypeID in the "table roomtype"

    p/s - each roomtypeID got it's own quantity room no.

    roomtypeID room_no

    example : Single room : 1-10
    : Deluxe room : 11-20
    : Suite room : 21-30

    right now i'm only having this kind of idea. the random number from room. I don't know how can i generate A random room_no from table room based on the roomtypeID.
    
    (SELECT room_no FROM room ORDER BY RAND( )LIMIT 1) 
    
    Code (markup):
    any ideas is really appreciated:)
