Echo the 2 last columns of tabel - php

Question

I have a table and i want to echo the 2 last rows of my tabel, I used the below code but just the last one showed, what is the problem.
$result1 =(mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("SELECT * FROM $table ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 2")));
Print $result1['time'];

Answer 1

mysql_fetch_array = 1 fetch.
do it again for fetching 2nd result.
Also, use mysqli eh.

Answer 2

You're doing mysql_fetch_array only one time, so it gets the first element. If you want to get all the elements, then do it again, or use a loop.
Something like:
$query = "SELECT * FROM $table ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 2";
while($row = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query($query) )
{
echo $row['time'].'<br>';
}

Answer 3

For 2 Or more rows you need to loop it
$sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM $table ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 2")
while($row=mysql_fetch_array($sql))
{
echo $row['time']."<br>";
}

Answer 4

$query = mysqli_query("SELECT * FROM $table ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 2");
while ($result = mysqli_fetch_array($query)) {
echo $result['time'];
}
Gives out every return of your database (2 in this case). You should use mysqli_-functions.

Answer 5

Maybe you should try like this, since mysql_fetch_array returns only one row
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($yourQuery)) {
echo $row["yourAlias"];
}

Answer 6

My solution:
$limit = 2;
$sql = "SELECT * FROM $table ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT $limit";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
$array = array(); $i = 0;
while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result))
{
$array[$i] = $row;
$i++;
}
var_dump($array[0]);
var_dump($array[1]);
