Hobbyist_PHPer Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 Hi everyone, I used to know the function, but it was a very long time ago, for when you need to just extract a single value from a query... instead of having to use mysql_fetch_assoc in a while loop to build an array... e.g. $TheResultingFieldValue = mysql_fetch_SOMETHING(mysql_query("SELECT aField FROM aTable WHERE anotherField = 'aCondition'")); Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spiderwell Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 its mysql_fetch_row, but that only has numbers instead of column names: see here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PFMaBiSmAd Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 mysql_result can be used to fetch a single value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiderwell Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 maybe this i think that one returns everything about the field except its actual value, but i'm not sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
