<para>
|
|
<function>mysql_affected_rows</function> returns the number of
|
|
rows affected by the last INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE query on the
|
|
server associated with the specified link identifier. If the
|
|
link identifier isn't specified, the last opened link is assumed.
|
|
<para>
|
|
If the last query was a DELETE query with no WHERE clause, all
|
|
of the records will have been deleted from the table but this
|
|
function will return zero.
|
|
<para>
|
|
This command is not effective for SELECT statements, only on
|
|
statements which modify records. To retrieve the number of rows
|
|
returned from a SELECT, use <function>mysql_num_rows</function>.

<para>

<function>mysql_connect</function> establishes a connection to a
|
|
MySQL server. All of the arguments are optional, and if they're
|
|
missing, defaults are assumed ('localhost', user name of the user
|
|
that owns the server process, empty password). The hostname

|
string can also include a port number.
|
|
eg. "hostname:port"
|

<para>

In case a second call is made to

new link will be established, but instead, the link identifier of

the already opened link will be returned.
|

<para>

The link to the server will be closed as soon as the execution of

the script ends, unless it's closed earlier by explicitly calling

|
<function>mysql_close</function>.

|
Returns an array that corresponds to the fetched row, or false

if there are no more rows.
|
|
<para>
|
|
<function>mysql_fetch_array</function> is an extended version of
|
|
<function>mysql_fetch_row</function>. In addition to storing the
|
|
data in the numeric indices of the result array, it also stores
|
|
the data in associative indices, using the field names as keys.
|
|
<para>
|
|
If two or more columns of the result have the same field names,
|
|
the last column will take precedence. To access the other column(s)
|
|
of the same name, you must the numeric index of the column or
|
|
make an alias for the column.

An important thing to note is that using

<function>mysql_fetch_array</function> is NOT significantly
|
|
slower than using <function>mysql_fetch_row</function>, while it

|
provides a significant added value.

<para>

The optional second argument <parameter>result_typ</parameter> in
|

<function>mysql_fetch_array</function> is a constant and can take

the following values: MYSQL_ASSOC, MYSQL_NUM, and MYSQL_BOTH.

<para>
|
|
<function>mysql_fetch_object</function> is similar to

<function>mysql_fetch_array</function>, with one difference - an

object is returned, instead of an array. Indirectly, that means

that you can only access the data by the field names, and not by

their offsets (numbers are illegal property names).

Returns: A positive MySQL persistent link identifier on success,

|
|
<para>
|
|
<function>mysql_pconnect</function> acts very much like
|
|
<function>mysql_connect</function> with two major differences.
|
|
<para>
|
|
First, when connecting, the function would first try to find a
|
|
(persistent) link that's already open with the same host,
|
|
username and password. If one is found, an identifier for it
|
|
will be returned instead of opening a new connection.
|
|
<para>
|
|
Second, the connection to the SQL server will not be closed when
|
|
the execution of the script ends. Instead, the link will remain
|
|
open for future use (<function>mysql_close</function> will not
|
|
close links established by <literal>mysql_pconnect()</literal>).
|
|
<para>
|
|
This type of links is therefore called 'persistent'.

called, and use it.
|

<para>

This function returns TRUE or FALSE to indicate the success of

UPDATE, INSERT, and DELETE queries. For SELECT queries it returns

a new result identifier. The resources used by the query can

then be freed by calling <function>mysql_free_result</function>.

field's offset, or the field's name, or the field's table dot
|

field's name (fieldname.tablename). If the column name has been

aliased ('select foo as bar from...'), use the alias instead of

the column name.

<para>
|
|
When working on large result sets, you should consider using one
|
|
of the functions that fetch an entire row (specified below). As
|
|
these functions return the contents of multiple cells in one
|
|
function call, they're MUCH quicker than
|
|
<function>mysql_result</function>. Also, note that specifying a
|
|
numeric offset for the field argument is much quicker than
|
|
specifying a fieldname or tablename.fieldname argument.
|
|
<para>
|
|
Calls <function>mysql_result</function> should not be mixed
|
|
with calls to other functions that deal with the result set.
|
|
<para>
|
|
Recommended high-performance alternatives:
|
|
<function>mysql_fetch_row</function>,
|
|
<function>mysql_fetch_array</function>, and
|
|
<function>mysql_fetch_object</function>.

<function>mysql_select_db</function> sets the current active

database on the server that's associated with the specified link

|
identifier. If no link identifier is specified, the last opened
|
|
link is assumed. If no link is open, the function will try to

establish a link as if <function>mysql_connect</function> was

called, and use it.

Every subsequent call to <function>mysql_query</function> will be

<function>mysql_tablename</function> takes a result pointer
|
|
returned by the <function>mysql_list_tables</function> function
|
|
as well as an integer index and returns the name of a table. The
|
|
<function>mysql_num_rows</function> function may be used to
|
|
determine the number of tables in the result pointer.
