Question

If I have an array of say, some ID\'s of users. How could i do something like this:

$array = array(1,40,20,55,29,48);
$sql = \"SELECT * FROM `myTable` WHERE          


        

Answer 1

Use IN:

$sql = "SELECT * FROM `myTable` WHERE `myField` IN (1,40,20,55,29,48)";

you can use implode(",", $array) to get the list together from the array.

Answer 2

You want to use IN:

WHERE `myfield` IN (1,40,20,55,29,48)

Use implode to construct the string:

$sql = "SELECT * FROM `myTable` WHERE `myField` IN (" . implode(',', $array) . ")";
