How do we count them back together? LIKE: 1 2 3 4 5. i not want use of id in column database
select list_of_fields,@rn:=@rn+1 as row_num
from table,(select @rn:=0) as r order by id
Just use this SQL query:
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table_name
If you want to know how many rows were returned by another query, you can use the PHP mysql_num_rows function. (You could also just increment a counter for each row you process, but this function is handy if you need to know the number of records prior to enumerating the results.)
You can use this
$result = $this->db->get(<table_name>);
$num_rows = $result->num_rows();
$num_rows
would be the total rows in table_name
Then you can just do this
echo 'The number of rows in table_name is '.$num_rows
;
This query should do the trick for you:
SELECT COUNT(*) as count FROM `table`
The result set would be
[count]
-------
5
Assuming you have 5 rows.
In order to manually count each row and display its index (without using ID), I would do something like
$counter = 1;
$stmt = $db->prepare('SELECT `field` FROM `table`');
$stmt->execute();
while($row = $stmt->fetch()) {
echo "<b>{$counter}:</b> {$row['field']}";
$counter++;
}
