Re: return array

the field variable has been defined outside the function as a global var? if not, don't forget to do it. Inside the function, the var behaves as local, unless you declare it as global.here's an example: <?php $x = 2; function test_x () { echo $x; //doesn't work because x is not global; //but if you do something like: global $x; echo $x; // will print 2 } ?> Rui Cunha Sukanto Kho writes:

Hi All, how to return array var from function ?? I have try that but just can't return it.. here's my code :(function to return any fields name from table) function fields($table,$db_name) { $link=$this->database(); // this open the database connection

     $fields = mysql_list_fields($db_name, $table, $link);
              $columns = mysql_num_fields($fields);
              for ($i = 0; $i < $columns; $i++) {
                 $field[$i] = mysql_field_name($fields, $i);}
     return $field[];
     } 

Thanx a lot Sukanto
