Question

I would like to display the 2nd record in a $row.

Here is my query

select    LEFT(A.F_ANOTRIMESTRE, 4) Year,
      RIGHT(A.F_ANOTRIMESTRE, 2) Quarter,

      IF(RIGHT(A.F_ANOTRIMESTRE, 2)=03,'Enero a Marzo',
      IF(RIGHT(A.F_ANOTRIMESTRE, 2)=06,'Abril a Junio',
      IF(RIGHT(A.F_ANOTRIMESTRE, 2)=09,'Julio a Septiembre',
      IF(RIGHT(A.F_ANOTRIMESTRE, 2)=12,'Octubre a Diciembre',
      '')
      ))) Quarter_Name,

      ROUND(A.POR_RENTABILIDAD, 2) Quarterly_yield

from      dr_rent_carteras_trimestres A
where     A.ID_CARTERA = $ID_CARTERA
And       A.IND_RENTABILIDAD = 1

Order by A.F_ANOTRIMESTRE asc

Here is the php.

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
  {
    $currentState = ($currentState == 'odd' ? 'even' :'odd' );


 echo "<tr id='centered' >";  echo "<td class='leftalign'>" . $row['Quarter_Name'] .     "</td>";

echo "<td>" . $row['Quarterly_yield'] . "</td>";




  echo "</tr>";
  }
echo "</tbody></table>";

I want to pull the 2nd record in Quarterly_yield. How would I display that?

Answer 1

If you want to do it from PHP, you can just index your results, like you do any other array.

Alternatively, you can do this from MySQL by using LIMIT 1,1 at the end of your query. For instance, here’s your modified query. Notice the last line:

select    LEFT(A.F_ANOTRIMESTRE, 4) Year,
  RIGHT(A.F_ANOTRIMESTRE, 2) Quarter,
  IF(RIGHT(A.F_ANOTRIMESTRE, 2)=03,'Enero a Marzo',
  IF(RIGHT(A.F_ANOTRIMESTRE, 2)=06,'Abril a Junio',
  IF(RIGHT(A.F_ANOTRIMESTRE, 2)=09,'Julio a Septiembre',
  IF(RIGHT(A.F_ANOTRIMESTRE, 2)=12,'Octubre a Diciembre',
  '')
  ))) Quarter_Name,
  ROUND(A.POR_RENTABILIDAD, 2) Quarterly_yield
  from      dr_rent_carteras_trimestres A
  where     A.ID_CARTERA = $ID_CARTERA
  And       A.IND_RENTABILIDAD = 1
  Order by A.F_ANOTRIMESTRE asc
  LIMIT 1,1
