[PHP-DB] resources and resource types
When I did a search on resource(5) within the PHP online documentation, I found the resource page resource.php. While although it lists all the resources used with mysql, it does not mention how resources are related to resource numbers as above. A query such as a row count on a table results in an integer value. What is the best way of accessing or converting the integer value from the resource? I can't see any particular function in the function list which does this, without getting into strings or arrays, or have I missed something blaringly obvious, hope not? -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RES: [PHP-DB] resources and resource types
[top posting warning] You still did not RTFM as Stut told you 4 days ago. I'm pasting here the entire conversation with the subject Resource id #5: -Mensagem original- De: Stut [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Enviada em: quinta-feira, 27 de março de 2008 15:14 Para: Richard Dunne Cc: php-db@lists.php.net Assunto: Re: [PHP-DB] Resource id #5 On 27 Mar 2008, at 17:51, Richard Dunne wrote: Can someone explain how I can translate Resource id #5 which is what I am getting from the code below? $result = mysql_query(Select answer from answers) or die(mysql_error()); $resultArray = explode(',',$result); for ($i=0;$isizeof($resultArray);$i++) { echo $resultArray[$i]; } For the love of $DEITY, please read the frickin' manual: http://php.net/mysql . You've been asking similar questions around this topic for the past few days and you clearly haven't moved forward in your understanding. The mysql_query function returns a resource. If you print a resource you get the text Resource id #n where n is replaced with its ID. To make use of this resource you need to use functions like mysql_fetch_array, mysql_fetch_assoc or one of the many others detailed in, you guessed it, the manual. Try it, you might like it. -Stut -- http://stut.net/ -Mensagem original- De: Richard Dunne [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Enviada em: segunda-feira, 31 de março de 2008 15:40 Para: php-db@lists.php.net Assunto: [PHP-DB] resources and resource types When I did a search on resource(5) within the PHP online documentation, I found the resource page resource.php.

Re: [PHP-DB] resources and resource types
The ID of the resource changes on every new resource. There is no co-relation between resources and resources id. The only thing you can get is the Type of the Resource, read: * http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.resource.php * http://www.php.net/manual/en/resource.php * http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.get-resource-type.php -- Atte, Andrés G.

Here's the manual: http://php.net/language.types.resource Also: http://php.net/resource An entire list of all possible resource types and respective functions. Read up, man. - Jon L.
