I’m having trouble moving from MySQL SELECT methods to PDO methods. I want to iterate through a fetched array twice, both times starting with row zero. In MySQL I would use:
mysql_data_seek($result,0);
Using PDO methods, I’m not sure how to accomplish the same thing. The code below is how I am trying to do this. The first while loop works fine but the second while loop returns nothing.
$pdo = new PDO('mysql:host=' . $host . ';dbname='.$database, $username, $password); $pdo->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION); $stmt = $pdo->prepare('SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE active = 1 ORDER BY name ASC'); $stmt->setFetchMode(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC); $stmt->execute(); while($row = $stmt->fetch()) { //do something starting with row[0] } while($row = $stmt->fetch()) { //do something else starting with row[0] }

Save your results to an array and then loop that array twice.
$pdo = new PDO('mysql:host=' . $host . ';dbname='.$database, $username, $password); $pdo->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION); $stmt = $pdo->prepare('SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE active = 1 ORDER BY name ASC'); $stmt->setFetchMode(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC); $stmt->execute(); $rows = $stmt->fetchAll(); foreach ($rows as $r) { // first run } foreach ($rows as $r) { // seconds run }
