How can PHP developers ensure that only relevant data is displayed based on date ranges in MySQL queries?

To ensure that only relevant data is displayed based on date ranges in MySQL queries, PHP developers can use the "BETWEEN" clause in their SQL queries. This clause allows them to specify a range of dates to filter the results. They can pass the start and end dates as parameters in the query to dynamically adjust the date range. 

// Define start and end dates
$start_date = '2022-01-01';
$end_date = '2022-12-31';

// Prepare SQL query with date range filter
$sql = "SELECT * FROM table_name WHERE date_column BETWEEN :start_date AND :end_date";

// Prepare and execute the statement
$stmt = $pdo->prepare($sql);
$stmt->execute(['start_date' => $start_date, 'end_date' => $end_date]);

// Fetch and display results
while ($row = $stmt->fetch()) {
    echo $row['column_name'] . "<br>";
}
