Two queries will be used for this task. The first query, you will count the rows of the recordset. The second query is the same as the first but it will have the LIMIT – this is what will be used to display the data on each page.
Let’s say we have the following table.
Now we’ll query the database and get the row count using PDO.
If you don’t use the bindValue, you will get an error in your query. Your second query would look something like this….
…and the error would occur right after LIMIT. You cannot have quotes surrounding the numbers. It took a few hours of Googling but found the solution.
I’ve been checking out Python and Django and I’m impressed at what it can do. It’s efficient and has more things built-in compared to PHP and CodeIgniter. Unfortunately, I ran into some issues when installing the python-mysqldb. Without it, I can’t connect to MySQL – I could do sqlite3 fine though. I have existing projects…
I have been messing around with jQuery for a couple of days now and I think I’m getting the hang of it. Before using jQuery, I was using Mootools for processing forms to divs. It worked as intended but what I couldn’t do was create new javascript within the loaded pages. As interfaces get more…
I’ve been developing web sites for almost 10 years now. I’m still in search of a way to develop faster. I find myself doing things over and over again. I use PHP as the programming language to develop the web apps with MySQL database. I started to look for different frameworks – but most use…
I’ve been searching for a way to create a wrapper page within WordPress without having to install a plugin. I browsed the WordPress files and found wp-blog-header.php in the root install directory. It’s really simple. <?php require_once(‘wp-blog-header.php’); get_header(); // this is the content layout based on the current theme you are using get_sidebar(); get_footer(); ?>…
I was having a few problems creating a page with ampersands in the URL. This is a quick fix if it’s part of the HTML by using & but if it’s part of a javascript, it will take the code literally. For example, let’s say you have a javascript function that sends you to a…
I’m using the jQuery plugin from http://bassistance.de/jquery-plugins/jquery-plugin-validation. The plugin is greate. I did run into a problem with arrays. Say your form has a group of checkboxes or radio buttons and their names are checkbox or radio. To have them be in the same group, their names have to be the same and to process…

Thanks a whole bunch for this tutorial. It was a big help for a custom CMS I am writing. Once it is finished I will give you a thank you mention. Don’t understand why no one commented here. This is the only tutorial on making Pager work with PDO I could find. Thanks again.
