I have a working pdo integrated database class. All of my queries are working

  • 0

I have a working pdo integrated database class. All of my queries are working very efficiently but when I try to pass a certain value, I got stuck. This value is:

DATE_SUB('2010-11-03', INTERVAL 30 DAY)

Now after all my working of class query is prepared like:

SELECT DATE(added) AS date FROM data WHERE DATE(added) <= ?

When i m trying to pass the value: DATE_SUB('2010-11-03', INETRVAL 30 DAY) to execute() function,no result is received(but query is executing successfully).

i tried sending raw value ‘2010-11-03'. Its working correctly but not wid this function.
Do anybody know y this mysql function is not being passed to execute function?

    You cannot use placeholders as a replace this portion of my SQL query : placeholders and their corresponding bound values, can only correspond to values.

    When you’re passing 2010-11-03, you’re passing a value — so it works.

    When you’re trying to pass DATE_SUB('2010-11-03', INTERVAL 30 DAY), it’s not a value — so it doesn’t work.

    Here, you’ll have to rewrite your Prepared statement, so the placeholder corresponds to the date, and not a whole expression :

    SELECT DATE(added) AS date 
FROM data 
WHERE DATE(added) <= DATE_SUB(?, INTERVAL 30 DAY)

    (The 30 could also be replaced with a placeholder, if needed)
