mysqli_field_seek
Set result pointer to a specified field offset
(PHP 5)
bool mysqli_field_seek ( mysqli_result result, int fieldnr )
Procedural style:
Object oriented style (method):
mysqli_result {
bool field_seek(int fieldnr);
}Sets the field cursor to the given offset. The next call to mysqli_fetch_field() will retrieve the field definition of the column associated with that offset.
Note:
To seek to the beginning of a row, pass an offset value of zero.
Parameters
- result
Procedural style only: A result set identifier returned by mysqli_query(), mysqli_store_result() or mysqli_use_result().
- fieldnr
The field number. This value must be in the range from
0tonumber of fields - 1.
Examples
Example 1507. Object oriented style
<?php
$mysqli = new mysqli("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "world");
/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
exit();
}
$query = "SELECT Name, SurfaceArea from Country ORDER BY Code LIMIT 5";
if ($result = $mysqli->query($query)) {
/* Get field information for 2nd column */
$result->field_seek(1);
$finfo = $result->fetch_field();
printf("Name: %s\n", $finfo->name);
printf("Table: %s\n", $finfo->table);
printf("max. Len: %d\n", $finfo->max_length);
printf("Flags: %d\n", $finfo->flags);
printf("Type: %d\n\n", $finfo->type);
$result->close();
}
/* close connection */
$mysqli->close();
?>Example 1508. Procedural style
<?php
$link = mysqli_connect("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "world");
/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
exit();
}
$query = "SELECT Name, SurfaceArea from Country ORDER BY Code LIMIT 5";
if ($result = mysqli_query($link, $query)) {
/* Get field information for 2nd column */
mysqli_field_seek($result, 1);
$finfo = mysqli_fetch_field($result);
printf("Name: %s\n", $finfo->name);
printf("Table: %s\n", $finfo->table);
printf("max. Len: %d\n", $finfo->max_length);
printf("Flags: %d\n", $finfo->flags);
printf("Type: %d\n\n", $finfo->type);
mysqli_free_result($result);
}
/* close connection */
mysqli_close($link);
?>The above example will output:
Name: SurfaceArea
Table: Country
max. Len: 10
Flags: 32769
