Display row number perl DBI

[romy_mathew]

Hi, Can anybody suggest how to display a row number in mysql query. I am able to get this done in mysql query by

select @rownum:=@rownum+1 AS rank, p.* from player p, (SELECT @rownum:=0) r order by score desc limit 10

But when I use this in $sth = $dbh->prepare("Select @rownum:=@rownum+1 ‘rank’, p.* from player p, (SELECT @rownum:=0) r order by score desc limit 10");

I get errors and the statement is not getting executed. ANy Suggestion ...?
