kristin Lai Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Hi,I'm trying create a query that pulls data that fit certain criteria but only pulls so many at a time. I know this means using the LIMIT statement but I don't know what the exact syntax would be. Right now I have: $queryImg = "SELECT * FROM images LIMIT $limitValue, $f_limit WHERE subID=$subID AND imgFeatured='no'";I'm getting an error thought so I need to figure out what's wrong with my syntax. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wickning1 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Just put it at the end. You may also want to use an ORDER BY clause. You can do ORDER BY RAND() if you want to display random images.[code]SELECT * FROM images WHERE subID='$subID' AND imgFeatured='no' ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT $startrow, $rows_to_return[/code]Also watch your quoting, leaving $subID bare could expose you to an SQL injection attack, even with magic quotes turned on.
