I'm trying to limit the number of results using variables I set them and its still returning all the results even though I'm setting a limit.
// Results Per page
$limit = 3;
// Page Number
$p=$_GET['p']=="" ? 1:$_GET['p'];
$start=($p-1)*$limit;
// Query
$sql=$conn->prepare("SELECT * FROM adverts WHERE status = 2 ORDER BY ref LIMIT :start, :limit");
$sql->bindValue(':limit', $limit, PDO::PARAM_INT);
$sql->bindValue(':start', $start, PDO::PARAM_INT);
$sql->execute();
$data=$sql->fetch();
?>
<section id="advert-listings">
<div class="container page-wrapper">
<div class="col-md-8 advert-listing">
<?php
print_r ($sql);
echo $start;
echo $limit;
?>
<?php if ($sql->rowCount()!=0) : ?>
<?php foreach ($adverts as $advert) : ?>
<div class="caption">
<ul>
<li><i class="fa fa-moon-o"></i> Sleeps: <?= $advert['news']; ?></li>
<li><i class="fa fa-paw"></i> Pets: <?= $advert['header']; ?></li>
<li><i class="fa fa-key"></i> Ref: <?= $advert['ref']; ?></li>
</ul>
</div>
<?php endforeach; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
As you can see I echo the $limit
& $start
which return 0, 3.
It should be limiting the results to 3 starting at 0.
