mysql_field_type() is similar to the mysql_field_name() function. The arguments are identical, but the field type is returned instead. The field type will be one of "int", "real", "string", "blob", and others as detailed in the » MySQL documentation.
<?php
mysql_connect("localhost", "mysql_username", "mysql_password");
mysql_select_db("mysql");
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM func");
$fields = mysql_num_fields($result);
$rows = mysql_num_rows($result);
$table = mysql_field_table($result, 0);
echo "Your '".$table."' table has ".$fields." fields and ".$rows." record(s)\n";
echo "The table has the following fields:\n";
for ($i=0; $i < $fields; $i++) {
$type = mysql_field_type($result, $i);
$name = mysql_field_name($result, $i);
$len = mysql_field_len($result, $i);
$flags = mysql_field_flags($result, $i);
echo $type." ".$name." ".$len." ".$flags."\n";
}
mysql_free_result($result);
mysql_close();
?>The above example would produce the following output:
Your 'func' table has 4 fields and 1 record(s)
The table has the following fields:
string name 64 not_null primary_key binary
int ret 1 not_null
string dl 128 not_null
string type 9 not_null enumFor downward compatibility mysql_fieldtype() can also be used. This is deprecated, however.
