It all depends on you, I basically get used on using mysql_fetch_array which returns an associative array. example: $result = mysql_query("SELECT name, lastname, age FROM table"); $ra = mysql_fetch_array($result); or $ro = mysql_fetch_object($result); or $rr = mysql_fetch_row($result); now: echo "name is :" . $ra["name"]; // array (same as: echo "name is:" . $ra[0]; or echo "name is:" . $ro->name; // object or echo "name is:" .$rr[0]; . . . just like the mysql_fetch_array() cause it returns both enumarated and associative array.
