pg_fetch_array returns an array that
corresponds to the fetched row (tuples/records). It returns
&false;, if there are no more rows.
pg_fetch_array is an extended version of
pg_fetch_row. In addition to storing the
data in the numeric indices (field index) to the result array, it
also stores the data in associative indices (field name) by
default.
&database.fetch-null;
row is row (record) number to be
retrieved. First row is 0.
result_type is an optional parameter that controls
how the return value is initialized.
result_type is a constant and can take the
following values: PGSQL_ASSOC,
PGSQL_NUM, and PGSQL_BOTH.
Using PGSQL_NUM, pg_fetch_array
will return an array with numerical indices, using
PGSQL_ASSOC will return only associative indices
while PGSQL_BOTH, the default, will return both
numerical and associative indices.
result_type was added in PHP 4.0.
pg_fetch_array is NOT significantly
slower than using pg_fetch_row, while it
provides a significant ease of use.
