I always thought that LIMIT in a query selects only between numbers I set.

I always thought that LIMIT in a query selects only between numbers I set.

Suppose I have two columns to be selected with primary key – id. I have 90 rows.

SELECT name, lastname 
FROM some_table 
WHERE id = '123' LIMIT 0, 30

will select exactly 30 rows. Ok, but

SELECT name, lastname 
FROM some_table 
WHERE id = '123' LIMIT 30, 60

will select more than 30 rows. Well, I am doing this for AJAX paginator using PHP+mysql.

How can I do this right way?

    limit is offset, rowcount. so it should be limit 30,30, not 30, 60, if you want 30 rows.
