I have three tables tag, page, pagetag
With the data below
page
ID NAME
1 page 1
2 page 2
3 page 3
4 page 4
tag
ID NAME
1 tag 1
2 tag 2
3 tag 3
4 tag 4
pagetag
ID PAGEID TAGID
1 2 1
2 2 3
3 3 4
4 1 1
5 1 2
6 1 3
I would like to get a string containing the correspondent tag names for each page with SQL in a single query. This is my desired output.
ID NAME TAGS
1 page 1 tag 1, tag 2, tag 3
2 page 2 tag 1, tag 3
3 page 3 tag 4
4 page 4
Is this possible with SQL?
I am using MySQL. Nonetheless, I would like a database vendor independent solution if possible.

However, I am not getting the pages without tags. I guess i need to write my query with left outer joins.
SELECT pagetag.id, page.name, group_concat(tag.name)
FROM
(
page LEFT JOIN pagetag ON page.id = pagetag.pageid
)
LEFT JOIN tag ON pagetag.tagid = tag.id
GROUP BY page.id;
Not a very pretty query, but should give you what you want - pagetag.id and group_concat(tag.name) will be null for page 4 in the example you've posted above, but the page shall appear in the results.
