string mysql_field_type
(string result, int field_offset);mysql_field_type() is similar to the mysql_field_name() function. The arguments are identical, but the field type is returned. This will be one of "int", "real", "string", or "blob".
Example 1. mysql field types <?php mysql_connect("localhost:3306"); mysql_select_db("wisconsin"); $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM onek"); $fields = mysql_num_fields($result); $rows = mysql_num_rows($result); $i = 0; $table = mysql_field_table($result, $i); echo "Your '".$table."' table has ".$fields." fields and ".$rows." records <BR>"; echo "The table has the following fields <BR>"; while ($i < $fields) { $type = mysql_field_type ($result, $i); $name = mysql_field_name ($result, $i); $len = mysql_field_len ($result, $i); $flags = mysql_field_flags ($result, $i); echo $type." ".$name." ".$len." ".$flags."<BR>"; $i++; } mysql_close(); ?> |
For downward compatibility mysql_fieldtype() can also be used.
