RE: [PHP-DB] Extracting result - unknown number of fields

..but even if I can get the names and number of fields during 'run-time', how do I make the following statement applicable to a variable number of fields: while(list($a,$b...)= mysql_fetch_array($result)) or is there another way to extract which would work?
