I have a form which displays mysql data in the form of an HTML table, using pagination of 5 records per page. I'm trying to export my table to excel, but it's only exporting data of the rows that are currently show, meaning if there are 20 rows, it only shows the first 5 as those get displayed. How can I make it export the one's that are not being displayed but still part of the search? I saw a few other people with a similar question but none have answers( How to export all HTML table rows to Excel file from a paginated table?). Hopefully I can get one!
<?php
if(isset($_GET['submit']) || isset($_GET['page'])){
// Setting up the Pagination below
echo '<center>';
$page_query = "SELECT * FROM tbl_call_log_detail ";
$page_query .= "WHERE
(dealer_id = '$call_id' AND '$endDate'='1970-01-01' AND '$startDate' ='1970-01-01')
OR ( Time <= '$endDate' AND Time >= '$startDate'
AND (dealer_id = '$call_id' OR'$call_id'='' ))
OR ('$endDate'='1970-01-01' AND '$startDate' ='1970-01-01' AND '$call_id'='') ";
$page_result = mysqli_query($conn, $page_query);
$total_records = mysqli_num_rows($page_result);
$total_pages = ceil($total_records/$record_per_page);
$start_loop = $page;
$difference = $total_pages - $page;
if($difference <= $total_pages){
$start_loop = $total_pages - $difference;

UPDATE: Found the answer I was looking for I simply ran a new sql query without the LIMIT clause and stored it in a hidden table. I then use the hidden table to export data
// SQL and hidden table for exporting to excel
$page_query2 = "SELECT * FROM tbl_call_log_detail ";
$page_query2 .= "WHERE
(dealer_id = '$call_id' AND '$endDate'='1970-01-01' AND '$startDate' ='1970-01-01')
OR ( Time <= '$endDate' AND Time >= '$startDate'
AND (dealer_id = '$call_id' OR'$call_id'='' ))
OR ('$endDate'='1970-01-01' AND '$startDate' ='1970-01-01' AND '$call_id'='') ORDER BY TIME DESC ";
$page_result2 = mysqli_query($conn, $page_query2);
$row2 = mysqli_num_rows($page_result2);
$all_property2 = array();
echo "<table class = 'data-table2' border = '1' cellpadding = '9' bgcolor = '#CCCCCC' id = 'data-table2' hidden>
<tr class = 'data-heading2'>";
while($property = mysqli_fetch_field($page_result2)){
