Hello friends can anyone please suggest me how can i fetch data from database, that is i need from 4th row to 8th row,so how can i do it in codeigniter

Answer 1

as per my opinion

 $this->db->limit('3');

change this code use below code

$this->db->limit(5,3);

it will work

Answer 2

If you want to fetch data from row 4th to 8th then please edit limit line as follow :

    $this->db->limit(3,4);

Here 3 is offset which is the 4th one as it starts from 0. 4 specify no of records to be fetched.
