(PHP 3, PHP 4 , PHP 5)

mysql_fetch_lengths --  Get the length of each output in a result

Description

array mysql_fetch_lengths ( resource result)

Returns an array that corresponds to the lengths of each field in the last row fetched by mysql_fetch_row(), or FALSE on error.

mysql_fetch_lengths() stores the lengths of each result column in the last row returned by mysql_fetch_row(), mysql_fetch_assoc(), mysql_fetch_array(), and mysql_fetch_object() in an array, starting at offset 0.

Example 1. A mysql_fetch_lengths() example

<?php
$result
= mysql_query("SELECT id,email FROM people WHERE id = '42'");
if (!
$result) {
    echo
'Could not run query: ' . mysql_error();
    exit;
}
$row     = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
$lengths = mysql_fetch_lengths($result);

print_r($row);
print_r($lengths);

/* Output will look similar to:
Array
(
    [id] => 42
    [email] => user@example.com
)
Array
(
    [0] => 2
    [1] => 16
)
