Need Good OUTER Join

Hello all,

I'm having trouble figuring out the proper Outer join (duplicate titles) for the following:

I need a list of all the page_id (id's) and page_title (titles) from PAGES along with the security_id from USERS_X_PAGES where the user exists.  USERS_X_PAGES may or may not have any records.  Below is my current query and table layout.

Thanks for any help you can give.

Sincerely,

Woody

  1  select p.page_id, substr(p.page_title,1,30), p.page_parent_id, x.security_id

  2  from pages p, users_x_pages x, users u

  3  where p.page_id = x.page_id(+)

  4  and x.user_id = u.user_id(+)

  5  and u.user_id(+) = 5

  6* order by page_title

SQL> /    PAGE_ID SUBSTR(P.PAGE_TITLE,1,30)      PAGE_PARENT_ID SECURITY_ID
