Store multiple rows from mysql database into one single variable

Question

this is really hard for me, i\'m trying to store multiple rows from my table in mysql into a single variable

$mysql_statementJc = \"SELECT * FROM `dog`.`ca         


        

Answer 1

you want to create a concatenated string, php has the .= syntax for this:

$groupConcat='';

 while($row = mysql_fetch_array($mysql_commandJc)){
    $groupConcat .= $row['industry'] . " OR ";
}
    echo $groupConcat; //no point echoing inside the loop

sometimes a better approach is to use an array and implode()

$groupConcat=array();

 while($row = mysql_fetch_array($mysql_commandJc)){
    $groupConcat[] = $row['industry'];
}
    echo implode(' OR ',$groupConcat);
