PHP - Limit 50 Rows In Search Results Per Page
Hi all, I need your help as I have got a problem with display the 50 rows in the search results. I want to limit 50 rows in per page and if I have less than 50 rows like 21 rows in the page 2 then display the 21 rows. I have got a problem with the limit, because when I tried to use `LIMIT 0, 50`, it will display total 71 rows which I only want to display no more than 50 in per page. Here is what I have tried: $search_mailbox = $link->prepare("SELECT * FROM $folder WHERE from_email LIKE ? OR subject LIKE ? OR message LIKE ? ORDER BY received_date DESC LIMIT 0, 50"); $search_mailbox->execute([$searchemail, $searchsubject, $searchmessage]);
$search_mailbox = $link->prepare("SELECT * FROM $folder WHERE from_email LIKE ? OR subject LIKE ? OR message LIKE ? ORDER BY received_date DESC LIMIT $offset, $limit"); $search_mailbox->execute([$searchemail, $searchsubject, $searchmessage]);
Here is the full code:
<?php // Initialize the session session_start(); //Connect to the database require_once('config.php'); $searchemail = '%' . 'gmail.com' . '%'; $searchsubject = '%' . 'gmail.com' . '%'; $searchmessage = '%' . 'gmail.com' . '%'; $mailbox = $link->prepare("SHOW TABLES"); $mailbox->execute(); $folders = array(); $total = 0; $total_rows = 0; $i = 0; while ($folder = $mailbox->fetch(PDO::FETCH_NUM)) { $folder = $folder[0]; if (strpos($folder, 'users') !== false) { $folder = str_replace('users', '', $folder); } else { $folders[$i] = $folder; } $i++; } foreach($folders as $folder) { $search_mailbox = $link->prepare("SELECT * FROM $folder WHERE from_email LIKE ? OR subject LIKE ? OR message LIKE ? ORDER BY received_date DESC LIMIT 0, 50"); $search_mailbox->execute([$searchemail, $searchsubject, $searchmessage]); if ($search_mailbox->rowCount() > 0) { $total += $search_mailbox->rowCount(); } } $page = 1; $limit = 50; //$per_page = 50; //$pages = ceil($total / $per_page); $offset = ($page - 1) * $limit; foreach($folders as $folder) { $search_mailbox = $link->prepare("SELECT * FROM $folder WHERE from_email LIKE ? OR subject LIKE ? OR message LIKE ? ORDER BY received_date DESC LIMIT $offset, $limit); $search_mailbox->execute([$searchemail, $searchsubject, $searchmessage]); if ($search_mailbox->rowCount() > 0) { foreach($search_mailbox->fetchAll() as $k => $row) { $email_number = $row['id']; $search_from = $row['from_email']; $search_subject = $row['subject']; $total_rows++; echo $search_subject . '.........................' . $total_rows; echo "<br>"; } } } ?> I am unable to fetch the first 50 rows in the page 1 and I am also unable to fetch the 21 rows in the page 2. What I am trying to achieve is when I am in page 1, I want to display the first 50 rows, then in the page 2 if I have another 50 rows then display the 50 rows, but if I have less than 50 rows like 21 rows then display the 21 rows. Can you please show me an example how I can start with first 50 rows when I am in the page 1 then in page 2 display 21 rows to make in total 71 rows? Any advice would be much appreicated. Thanks in advance. Similar TutorialsNeed help to correct my cording! I want to limited search results by 5 items on one page.
Don't know how correctly to add limit: "limit $page1,5".
When I add it: $sql = "SELECT * FROM data GROUP BY city ORDER BY city limit $page1,5";
it doesn't limit searching result by pages.

5 downloads Hello. I am having a hard time building my own search results page for my mysql database. Basically I am trying to search for game categories from the fldCategory field in the table, and display 15 results at a time in an HTML table with the Image of the games (fldIconMedium), and the titles of the games (fldTitle) placed in to the table. Also, at the bottom of the table would have a number bar that you can click on numbers to go to the next set of search results in the same page. The number bar would have Previous and Next button. For the code I am using, I had help from another expert. I thank him, but here is the code I have so far. =========================== =========================== <?php $cat=1; $nor=15; $a=1; if(isset($_GET['cat'])) { } else { $_GET['cat']=1; } echo $_GET['cat']; $con=mysql_connect("host","nusername","password") or die ("error"); $db=mysql_select_db("database",$con) or die("Database not found!"); $result=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM games") or die ("query error"); echo "<table border='1'><tr><th>ImageIcon</th><th>Title</th></tr>"; $r=mysql_num_rows($result); echo $r."<br/>"; $p=ceil($r/$nor); //echo $p; while($rows=mysql_fetch_array($result)) { if($a>($_GET['cat']-1)*$nor) { echo "<tr><td>".$rows['fldIconMedium']."</td><td>".$rows['fldTitle']."</td></tr>"; } $a=$a+1; } echo "</table>"; for($i=1;$i<=$p;$i++) { if($i==$_GET['cat']) { echo $i; } else { echo "<a href='gameslist.php?cat=".$i."'>".$i."</a>"; } } ?> =========================== =========================== To see this code in action, heres the link http://netroxy.com/gameslist.php?cat=skills. > Not working well. I am expecting the games search results page to look like this: http://netroxy.com/51274581336/search.htm So basically its: - viewing how many games found for game category, ex: Skills. Or Action, Mind, etc.. - the URL containing 'gameslist.php?cat=' with the given ID category at the end should search for that given category and display at least 15 games per results, along the number bar bellow, which counts how many are found from that category, which automatically increases or decreases the number bar bellow depending how many games from that specific category was found. I also forgot to mention that I did not add the Previous and Next button, which i dont know how - As for the 15 results per page, its basically 15 images (fldIconMedium) of different games of the same category, with their Titles (fldTitle) underneath them and both image and title should have the LINK to that specific game by retrieving the links from the 'fldLink' column where all the links of the games are found. Thanks all! Hi I'm new to the site... and new to PHP, so excuse me if my verbiage isn't quite right. I've been struggling to find a solution to paging through my search results. MY code works for the first five entries that are found via the mysql query but when I click next five results, the code breaks down and sends me back to my index. I believe the problem is he print " <a href=\"$PHP_SELF?s=$news&poster=$var\">Next 5 >></a>  "; I don't know how to rewrite, to display results based on the number of pages found. Ideally the user should be able to query the db and then page through the results. my entire code: Code: [Select] <?php // Get the search variable from URL $var = @$_GET['poster']; $trimmed = trim($var);//trim whitespace from stored variable // rows to return $limit=5; // check for empty string and display a message. if ($trimmed == "") { echo "<p>Please enter a search...</p>"; } else { // check for a search parameter if (!isset($var)) { echo "<p>We dont seem to have a search parameter!</p>"; exit; } //connect to your database $con = mysql_connect("localhost", "test", "test") or die('Sorry, could not connect to server'); mysql_select_db("recipe", $con) or die('Sorry, could not connect to database'); //Build SQL Query $query = "Select date, poster, title, article FROM bulletin WHERE poster LIKE \"%$trimmed%\" order by articleid desc"; $numresults=mysql_query($query); $numrows=mysql_num_rows($numresults); if ($numrows == 0) { echo "<h4>Results</h4>"; echo "<p>Sorry, your search: "" . $trimmed . "" returned zero results</p>"; } else // next determine if s has been passed to script, if not use 0 if (empty($s)) { $s=0; } // get results $query .= " limit $s,$limit"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die("Couldn't execute query"); // display what the person searched for echo "<p>You searched for: "" . $var . ""</p>"; // begin to show results set echo "Results"; echo "<hr>"; $count = 1 + $s ; // now you can display the results returned while ($row= mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $date = $row['date']; $poster = $row['poster']; $title = $row['title']; $article = $row['article']; echo "$date"; echo "<br>\n"; echo "<img src='images/marker.png'><font color=\"white\">$poster</font><br><br>\n"; echo "$title"; echo "<br />"; echo "<br />"; echo "<font color=\"white\">$article</font>\n"; echo "<br>\n"; echo "<hr>"; echo "<br>\n"; } $currPage = (($s/$limit) + 1); //break before paging echo "<br />"; // next we need to do the links to other results if ($s>=1) { // bypass PREV link if s is 0 $prevs=($s-$limit); print " <a href=\"$PHP_SELF?s=$prevs&q=$var\"><< Prev 5</a>  "; } // calculate number of pages needing links $pages=intval($numrows/$limit); // $pages now contains int of pages needed unless there is a remainder from division if ($numrows%$limit) { // has remainder so add one page $pages++; } // check to see if last page if (!((($s+$limit)/$limit)==$pages) && $pages!=1) { // not last page so give NEXT link $news=$s+$limit; print " <a href=\"$PHP_SELF?s=$news&poster=$var\">Next 5 >></a>  "; } $a = $s + ($limit) ; if ($a > $numrows) { $a = $numrows ; } $b = $s + 1 ; echo "<br />"; echo "<br />"; echo "<p>Showing results $b to $a of $numrows</p>"; } ?> If someone could help I would be so great full!

Edited by mac_gyver, 15 May 2014 - 08:17 AM. code tags please I have a search page and everything works fine but I would like to add the latest 10 rows to the page so there is something to look at or click on before the user searches. The page is at: www.giantstridedives.com/locations. You can see that it's pretty boring. Hit submit and you'll see the entries so far (only 3 right now). I'd like to have the latest 10 display there by default but then when a user searches they are replaced by the search results. Make sense? Here's the code I'm using for the search: Code: [Select] <?php if (isset($_POST['submit'])) { require_once('dbconnection.php'); mysqli_select_db($conn, $dbname); $searchterm = $_POST['search']; $searchterm = strip_tags($searchterm); $searchterm = trim ($searchterm); $q ="SELECT * FROM locations WHERE loc_name LIKE '%" . $searchterm .

Results are displayed below.</p></td> </tr> <tr> <td><strong>Location Name</strong></td> <td><strong>City</strong></td> <td><strong>State</strong></td> <td><strong>Depth (ft)</strong></td> <td><strong>Fees</strong></td> <td><strong>Gear Rentals</strong></td> <td><strong>Map</strong></td> </tr> <?php do { ?> <tr> <td><a href="loc_details.php?loc_id=<?php echo $row ['loc_id']; ?>"> <?php echo $row ['loc_name']; ?> </a></td> <td><?php echo $row ['loc_city']; ?></td> <td><?php echo $row ['loc_state']; ?></td> <td><?php echo $row ['loc_depth']; ?></td> <td>$<?php echo $row ['loc_fee']; ?></td> <td><?php if($row['loc_gear'] == 1) { echo 'Yes'; } else { echo 'No'; } ?></td> <td><a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?q=<?php echo $row ['loc_lat'];?>,<?php echo $row ['loc_lon'];?>" target="_blank">View Map</a></td> </tr> <?php } while ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($r)); ?> </table> <?php mysqli_free_result($r); } // this closes out results else } ?> I figure I can use the below query to get the results. Code: [Select] select * from table WHERE id > ((SELECT MAX(id) from table) - 10);I'm just not sure how I can display them by default and then have them be replaced by the search results. Anyone have any ideas for me? As always I appreciate the help as I continue to learn this beast. Hi guys I have a problem.

What I am trying to do is when the page loads normally, the records should be limited to $rowsPerPage but if a user has specified a number of rows in the dropdown it should show that number. Once I have that sorted I will also be trying to implement a'Start from Record Number' option. As always, any advice would be immensely appreciated! Thanks in advance Steve hello, is there a wat to limit the following to only the first 25 characters? $customername=$row1["customer"]; thanks I have a commenting system and i have a limit of a certain number of comments to be shown. What i want to do is have a button on the bottom of the page at the end of the comments that are showing and when you click it ajax loads the next certain number of of rows (but not all of them),and then you click it again and it shows more of them, etc. So for example. comment 1 comment 2 comment 3 comment 4 --click button--(loads 4 more)--- comment 5 comment 6 comment 7 comment 8 --click button--(loads 4 more)-- comment 9 comment 10 comment 11 comment 12 etc. until there are no more rows. what's the best way to do this? (I know how to do the ajax and all, i just need help with the script to select the rows) Thanks. I am building a commenting system, it's sort of like facebooks comments. I have it right now so it loads the first last 3 comments in the database, and then there's a button to view all comments. I have it working fine, except when you add another comment to it, and then click the view all comments, This is the script that loads onload showing the last 3 comments $limit = 3; $query5 = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM sub_comments WHERE status_id='$id' ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT $limit"); This is the php script that runs when you click view more //($start_id would be 3 in this case) $query5 = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM sub_comments WHERE status_id='$comment_id' ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT $start_id, 1000"); so to try to show you what's happening: OnLoad--------------------------------|---When you add more comments, (let's just say u add 1 comment before u click view comments)---- comment 9 --------------------------| comment 10 comment 8 --------------------------| comment 9 comment 7 --------------------------| comment 8 ------------------------------------------| comment 7 ----to be loaded onclick-------------|------What's loaded onclick--- comment 6 --------------------------| comment 7 comment 5 --------------------------| comment 6 comment 4 --------------------------| comment 5 comment 3 --------------------------| comment 4 comment 2 --------------------------| comment 3 comment 1 --------------------------| comment 2 ------------------------------------------| comment 1 (see how "comment 7" is being shown twice in a row) How can I limit my foreach to displaying three results?

'.$other['lastname']); ?> <a href="../u/<?php echo $other['username']; ?>"><?php echo $displayName; ?></a> <?php } How can I limit the amount of time my while loop to only show the first 4 rows of my SQL table?
I am using this code to loop my whole table:

The problem is, I want half the names to be printed in one column and the other half of names to be displayed in the other column. Can someone show me how to set the php code to do this?

This topic has been moved to MySQL Help. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=354388.0 The result pages is supposed to have pagination like google help me please
Hello, I'm developing a website that asks the user to submit a keyword for a search. The results should display matches for this keyword, but also show matches for related keywords (in order of relevenace!). I'm planning on building up a library of which search terms users use in the same sessions (e.g. if someone searches for "it jobs" and "php jobs", I'll know the terms are correlated), and I'll also measure the click-through rates of the items on the results list. I've been spending all weekend trying to map out the design for this but it's proving incredibly complicated and I think the solution is likely to be on the internet somewhere already?! Please could someone point me in the right direction if you've come accross this problem before? Thanks a million, Stu Alright, I need to find a way to display the top ten duplicated rows for a table in my database. I have tried multiple methods but I have failed. Can you please assist me with this problem. I currently run a query in phpmyadmin to get the result, but i cant figure out how to properly code the php script. I've got my code working OK in that the correct results are drawn from the database. What I have here in the code is an array consisting of an image, accompanied by its title and thirdly a link to activate a quiz associated with the image. Everything works fine, except because the page is dynamic, I always have an unknown number of sets of data (image, title and link) which I want to display so that each set of data takes up a new row. The code I have here, while displaying the correct data, places all of the results into the same row. Any suggestions are most welcome. Code: [Select] <?php // Query the database $query1 = mysql_query("SELECT title FROM topics WHERE managerId='".$managerId."' AND egroup1='"."1"."' ORDER BY title ASC"); $query2 = mysql_query("SELECT url_small FROM topics WHERE managerId='".$managerId."' AND egroup1='"."1"."' ORDER BY title ASC"); $query3 = mysql_query("SELECT title FROM topics WHERE managerId='".$managerId."' AND egroup1='"."1"."' ORDER BY title ASC"); while($row1 = mysql_fetch_array($query3)) { $linkname .= $row1['title']."<br />\n"; } ?> <table> <tr> <td> <?php while ($row2 = mysql_fetch_array($query2)) { $thumbnail.= $row2['url_small']; echo "<img src='wood_tool_images/{$row2['url_small']}' alt='' /><br />\n"; } ?> </td> <td height="200"> <?php echo $linkname ?> </td> <td> <?php while ($row1 = mysql_fetch_array($query1)) { $quizname.= $row1['title']; echo "<a href='../{$row1['title']} Safety Quiz/{$row1['title']} Safety Quiz.php'>Take This Quiz</a><br />\n"; } ?> </td> </tr> </table> hello, all: I'm a newbie, and been trying to work out a way so that the results from an array (or mysql recordset for that matter), are nicely aranged in a table. I want them to show in a grid-like manner, with rows and columns added according to number of "items". I worked out this small code snippet, with a sample array, and for the life of me, cant figure out how to make it so it automatically "breaks" columns at 5 and start new row. I got it to show me right number of rows, but then it repeats all 10 names within them, as opposed to just showing 5 names in each row... Appreciate the help... Code: [Select] <?php $names = array('Charles','Henry','Manny','Philip','Rose','Evelyn','Peter','Julia','Cary','Sophia'); $numberColumns = 5; $numberNames = count($names); $numberRows = ceil($numberNames / $numberColumns); echo "<table border='1' width='400' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0'>"; for ($i=1; $i<=$numberRows; $i++) { echo "<tr>"; foreach ($names as $name) { echo "<td>" . $name . "</td>"; } echo "</tr>"; } echo "</table>"; ?> i am creating a responsive website.
I'll give you an example.
I am retriving 100 items from mysql database using php. I am only showing 20 items per page using simple pagination with arrows. I keep this format on desktop and tablets. However, I would like to show less items when I am viewing the page on a smartphone. So instead of 20 items per page, it'll show 5 items per page along with the pagination arrows.
I was wondering if this is possible with PHP or would I have to use javascript?
