PDO bind array to Where IN

Question

I want to bind a array of Strings to the WHERE IN part of a SQL command, which I want to run afterwards on a SQL Server. The problem is probably that I try to bind

Answer 1

I faced similar problem with quite a big array to bind. Instead of skipping binding and injecting whole array directly to query or making workarounds with dynamically generating multiple unique placeholders to bind each record of array, I went for using find_in_set mysql function. Read more here.

In your case it would be:

$totalCount = 
"SELECT referral, COUNT(username) AS cnt FROM accounts
WHERE find_in_set(referral,$refIdsPartial) GROUP BY referral";
