sum(field) as total group with a where condition... - Mailing list pgsql-general

Am trying to accomplish a search within pgsql (from PHP though not a PHP issue
other than I need one command line)

SELECT field1,field2,sum(field3) AS total FROM table WHERE field2=12345 GROUP BY
field1

field1 field2 field3
------ ------ ------
55555  12344  10
55555  12345  10
55555  12345  10
44444  12345  10
33333  12345  10
66666  12346  10
77777  12346  10
88888  12347  10

and want it to find all those that match a particular date (field2), then return
sums for each field1...  using the above table should generate the following
result for field2=12345

55555 12345 20
44444 12345 10
33333 12345 10

It is hacking on the query, and again, I am calling this from a PHP script so it
would be easiers if it can be accomplished in one select query for the return
result.

Appreciate any insight.
