Question

Ive followed a bunch of different examples regarding using a SELECT in a prepared statement, but nothing is returned.
EDIT I have changed my code a bit to look like this:

$date1 = 2012-01-01;
$date2 = 2012-01-31;
$sql_con = new mysqli('db', 'username', 'password', 'database');

if($stmt = $sql_con->prepare("SELECT eventLogID FROM Country WHERE countryCode=? AND date BETWEEN ? AND ?")){

   $stmt->bind_param("sss", $country_code, $date1,$date2); 

    $stmt->execute();

  $i=0;
  while ($stmt->fetch()){
  $stmt->bind_result($row[$i]);
  $i++;
  }

  $stmt->close();
$sql_con->close();

Now all the desired entries, except for the first, are added to $row[]. Why isnt the first entry being added?
Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Just use get_result (instead of bind_result)

// parameters
$date1 = '2012-01-01';
$date2 = '2012-01-31';
$country_code = 'whatever';

// Connect to DB
$db = new mysqli('db', 'username', 'password', 'database');

// The query we want to execute
$sql = "SELECT eventLogID FROM Country WHERE countryCode = ? AND date BETWEEN ? AND ?";

$stmt = $db->prepare($sql);
$stmt->bind_param("sss", $country_code, $date1, $date2); 
$stmt->execute(); 
$result = $stmt->bind_result();

// get results into array
$logIds = $result->fetch_all(MYSQLI_ASSOC);
  
// Do something with the results
print_r($logIds);
