how can i do that with php

Answer 1

使用SQL LIKE语法：

SELECT * FROM tablename WHERE name LIKE 'A%'

Answer 2

Use a query like

SELECT `id`, `name` FROM `table` WHERE `name` LIKE :index

Then, bind :index to something like sprintf('%s%%', $selectedIndex)

It would also be a good idea to create an index on the name column.
