PHP PDO search for a value in two or more columns using one string

Question

When I want to find a value from a row using PDO I use the following method:

//Search whether user exists
$sqlQueryEmailLogin = $dbh->prepare(\"SELECT ven         


        

Answer 1

Try the following

$sql = "SELECT * FROM articles WHERE id = :id AND status = :status";
$stmt = $conn->prepare($sql);
$stmt->bindValue(':id', $id); 
$stmt->bindValue(':status', $status); 
$stmt->execute();
