Hi there,
what seems to be the best way of getting the total
row number on select queries with a limit on them?
What I am currently thinking of doing is building
select queries dynamically and wrapping all selected fields into the count()
function without the limit
somthing like:
select a,b,c from table limit 10
and for total count
select count(a,b,c) from table
and a function to build the select query with
parameters such as
function build_select($table, $cols=array(),
$limit, $orderby, $where) { ... }
I am going in the right direction? Instead of one
query I need 2 is there a way of making it just one query?
thanks for any help
regards, Peter
