Parameters

The result resource that is being evaluated. This result comes from a call to mysql_query().

Return Values

An array of lengths on success, or FALSE on failure.

Examples

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);
?>
