sybase_fetch_array() is an extended version of
sybase_fetch_row(). In addition to storing the
data in the numeric indices of the result array, it also stores
the data in associative indices, using the field names as keys.
An important thing to note is that using
sybase_fetch_array() is NOT significantly
slower than using sybase_fetch_row(), while it
provides a significant added value.
Parameters
result
Return Values
Returns an array that corresponds to the fetched row, or FALSE if there
are no more rows.
Note:
When selecting fields with identical names (for instance, in a join), the
associative indices will have a sequential number prepended. See the
example for details.
Examples
Example #1 Identical fieldnames
<?php
$dbh = sybase_connect('SYBASE', '', ''); $q = sybase_query('SELECT * FROM p, a WHERE p.person_id= a.person_id'); var_dump(sybase_fetch_array($q)); sybase_close($dbh); ?>
The above example would produce the following output (assuming the two tables only
have each one column called "person_id"):
