msql_fetch_row

(PHP 3, PHP 4 , PHP 5)

msql_fetch_row -- Get row as enumerated array

Description

array msql_fetch_row ( resource query_identifier [, int result_type] )

Returns an array that corresponds to the fetched row, or FALSE if there are no more rows.

msql_fetch_row() fetches one row of data from the result associated with the specified query identifier. The row is returned as an array. Each result column is stored in an array offset, starting at offset 0.

Subsequent call to msql_fetch_row() would return the next row in the result set, or FALSE if there are no more rows.

The second optional argument result_type is a constant and can take the following values: MSQL_ASSOC, MSQL_NUM, and MSQL_BOTH with MSQL_NUM being the default.

Warning

In PHP versions prior to 4.3.11 and 5.0.4 a bug existed when retrieving data from columns containing NULL values. Such columns were not placed into the resulting array.

Example 1. msql_fetch_row() example

<?php
$con = msql_connect();
if (!$con) {
    die('Server connection problem: ' . msql_error());
}

if (!msql_select_db('test', $con)) {
    die('Database connection problem: ' . msql_error());
}

$result = msql_query('SELECT id, name FROM people', $con);
if (!$result) {
    die('Query execution problem: ' . msql_error());
}

while ($row = msql_fetch_row($result)) {
    echo $row[0] . ': ' . $row[1] . "\n";
}

msql_free_result($result);
?>
