note 18318 added to function.mysql-list-fields

I'm not sure, but I guess PHP doesn't give any function to return id_number of field_name inside certain table. This could be usefull if you want to have field_id. function mysql_get_field_id($table, $name) { $link = mysql_connect('localhost', 'root', ''); $fields = mysql_list_fields("mydatabse", $table, $link); $columns = mysql_num_fields($fields); for ($i = 0; $i < $columns; $i++) { if(mysql_field_name($fields, $i) == $name) echo $i; } } Regards, Danny. -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-list-fields.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+18318 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+18318 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+18318
