This example illustrates how to execute LIMIT operator of mysql in PHP. 

In this example, we have created a limit.php page, in which we execute a query with LIMIT operator. In the LIMIT operator we put minimum and maximum limit of the table data. For example, the LIMIT 0,5 retrieves the row starting from row number 0 (the first one) to a maximum of 5 rows.

 

 

 

 

Table: emp

 

Source Code of limit.php 

<?php
  $con = mysql_connect("localhost","root","root");
  if (!$con) {
  die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
  }

  mysql_select_db("test", $con);
  $result = mysql_query("select * from emp limit 0,5");
  echo "<table border='1'>
  <tr>
  <th>id</th>
  <th>Name</th>
  </tr>";
  while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
  echo "<tr>";
  echo "<td>" . $row['emp_id'] "</td>";
  echo "<td>" . $row['name'] "</td>";
  echo "</tr>";
  }
  echo "</table>";
