Question

Kindly let me know how can I put the limit on the record in the below function. I want to fetch all the record but one first page I want to show 5 only. Like pagination.

while (($row = mysqli_fetch_array($rd)) ){

}

Answer 1

$times = 5;

while (($row = mysqli_fetch_array($rd)) && $times-- > 0){

}

However, this is not recommended! Use a limit clause in the SQL query instead, to avoid using a lot of CPU power for getting records you’re not going to use anyway.
