How can I have a query with GROUP_CONCAT return more the one row?

TXNID                PARENT_TXN_ID      ITEM_NAME

test1               4HD251984H4919123   setet

the above is my data. here is my query.

SELECT ppv1.*,GROUP_CONCAT(ppv2.txn_id SEPARATOR ' <BR>') GC 
from paypal_valid ppv1
LEFT JOIN (SELECT txn_id,parent_txn_id from paypal_valid where parent_txn_id!='')
ppv2 ON ppv1.txn_id=ppv2.parent_txn_id
where ppv1.item_name!='Merchandise Total' and ppv1.parent_txn_id=''

This is only returning 1 row...I'm thinking it should return 5. I'm just not sure why there is only one row being returned.

try this with group by

 SELECT ppv1.*,GROUP_CONCAT(ppv2.txn_id SEPARATOR ' <BR>') GC 
 from paypal_valid ppv1
LEFT JOIN (SELECT txn_id,parent_txn_id from paypal_valid where parent_txn_id!='')
 ppv2 ON ppv1.txn_id=ppv2.parent_txn_id
where ppv1.item_name!='Merchandise Total' and ppv1.parent_txn_id=''
group by ppv1.txn_id
                ^^^-------//make sure u have this in your ppv1 table
