My answer would tend to be that you should try it for yourself and see... But anyway, without having tried it myself recently, the first question is that you could use LIMIT (2, 1) and you'd probably get what you're trying for. As for the second question, you'll only get what records there are. If your limit excludes all possible results then you'll get no result (ie. If you use LIMIT(5, 10) and you've only got 3 records, then you won't get anything back at all. If you've got 7 records then you'll get the last 3 of them). But in all honesty, you could have worked this out for yourself fairly quickly with some simple testing of your own.
