Returns an array that corresponds to the fetched row, or
&false; if there are no more rows.
</para>
<para>
<function>sybase_fetch_array</function> is an extended version of
<function>sybase_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>
<para>
An important thing to note is that using
<function>sybase_fetch_array</function> is NOT significantly
slower than using <function>sybase_fetch_row</function>, while it
provides a significant added value.
</para>
<note>
<para>
When selecting fields with identical names (for instance, in
a join), the associative indices will have a sequential number prepended.
See the example for details.

<programlisting role="php">
<![CDATA[
<?php
$dbh = sybase_connect('SYBASE', '', '');
$q = sybase_query('SELECT * FROM p, a WHERE p.person_id= a.person_id');
var_dump(sybase_fetch_array($q));
sybase_close($dbh);
?>
]]>
</programlisting>
<para>
The above example would produce the following output (assuming the two tables only
have each one column called "person_id"):
