db_query_range
Definition
db_query_range($query)
drupal/includes/database.mysqli.inc, line 243
Description
Runs a limited-range query in the active database.
Use this as a substitute for db_query() when a subset of the query is to be returned. User-supplied arguments to the query should be passed in as separate parameters so that they can be properly escaped to avoid SQL injection attacks.
NOTE: using this syntax will cast NULL and FALSE values to decimal 0, and TRUE values to decimal 1.
Parameters
$query A string containing an SQL query.
... A variable number of arguments which are substituted into the query using printf() syntax. The query arguments can be enclosed in one array instead. Valid %-modifiers are: %s, %d, %f, %b (binary data, do not enclose in '') and %%.
$from The first result row to return.
$count The maximum number of result rows to return.
Return value
A database query result resource, or FALSE if the query was not executed correctly.
