PDO bind array to Where IN

Question

I want to bind a array of Strings to the WHERE IN part of a SQL command, which I want to run afterwards on a SQL Server. The problem is probably that I try to bind

Answer 1

You could use some string manipulation.

You can count the number of ? you'd need by using str_repeat("?", count(explode(",", $refIdsPartial))). This will create your placeholders.

$totalCount = 
"SELECT referral, COUNT(username) AS cnt FROM accounts
WHERE referral IN (". str_repeat("?,", count(explode(",", $refIdsPartial))-1) . "?) GROUP BY referral";

Now that the placeholders are in place, you can explode the , from the string and execute

$ps_totalCounts->execute( explode(",", $refIdsPartial) );
