From: mklangem@uwaterloo.ca Operating system: Windows 2000 PHP version: 4.0.6 PHP Bug Type: ODBC related Bug description: odbc_tables(), odbc_results() I am trying to get the table names from an Access database using odbc_tables() and then using odbc_fetch_row() and odbc_result(). I can print all the results using odbc_result_all() which gives an html table with all the information (In my test database I get 8 rows). However when I try to go through the results using fetch_row() and odbc_result() I get errors. I've tried going through step by step and weird things are happening. This works: <? $array = odbc_tables($conn); $names = array(); $i = 0; odbc_fetch_row($array); echo $i."<br>"; $i = odbc_fetch_row($array); echo $i."<br>"; $temp = odbc_result($array, "TABLE_NAME"); echo $temp; ?> But this doesn't: <? $array = odbc_tables($conn); $names = array(); $i = 0; // add extra assign of $i to odbc_fetch $i = odbc_fetch_row($array); echo $i."<br>"; $i = odbc_fetch_row($array); echo $i."<br>"; $temp = odbc_result($array, "TABLE_NAME"); echo $temp; ?> It seems like I can only assign or check odbc_fetch_row() and odbc_results() a total of two times. If I don't check or assing anything, I can get to the eigth row. If I do check or assign more than 2 twice, I get a cgi error or it just sits acting like its loading stuff. With some help, I found out that you can get around the problem by closing the connection and opening it again. I've also found that something like $num = count($array) will not work if you've already used you're 2 fetch_row)/results() assigns, but if you close the connection it will work again. -- Edit bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=12263&edit=1
