What does ":" mean when using bindValue() in PHP PDO? -
what : mean before id in example below? necessary?
$sth->bindvalue(':id', $id, pdo::param_int); can :id variable?
if pdo::param_int not necessary, why need use it?
:id named placeholder prepared query. somewhere else in code there's query along lines of:
select stuff id = :id that gets run through pdo's prepare function.
if
pdo::param_intnot necessary, why need use it?
safety / data consistency. see pdo::param_int important in bindparam?
