ol list start at number 2 not number 1!

Hi,

 

Is it possible to start a list from number 2 say.

 

The start="2" is NOT working.

 

Thanks in anticipation

Are you querying the records and you want it to start from '2',if that's the scenario then you should be using OFFSET keyword in your query,something like below :-

 

SELECT Id FROM Account LIMIT 100 OFFSET 2 // This would start from the 2nd record

Yes,

 

The same way you can store it in a list like below :-

 

List<Account> accList =[select id from Account Limit 10 OFFSET 2]; // This list would contain the records starting from no 2

You can use the attribute "first" if you are using pageBlockTable or repeat tag to display your list and define the index from where you want to visibly render the items in your collection.

 

You can use attribute "first" for all the apex tag allows to use collection as source.
