It appears that you can't have table.field names in the resulting array.
Just use an alias if your results come up empty and you are using multi-table query's:
$res=mysql_query("SELECT user.ID AS uID, order.ID AS oID FROM user, order WHERE ( order.userid=uID )";
while ($row=mysql_fetch_assoc($res)) {
echo "<p>userid: $row['uID'], orderid: $row['oID']</p>";
}
mysql_fetch_assoc
(PHP 4 >= 4.0.3, PHP 5)
mysql_fetch_assoc — Lit une ligne de résultat MySQL dans un tableau associatif
Avertissement
Cette extension était obsolète en PHP 5.5.0, et a été supprimée en PHP 7.0.0. À la place, vous pouvez utiliser l'extension MySQLi ou l'extension PDO_MySQL. Voir aussi MySQL : choisir une API du guide. Alternatives à cette fonction :
- mysqli_fetch_assoc()
-
PDOStatement::fetch()
avec
modeen tant quePDO::FETCH_ASSOC
Description
mysql_fetch_assoc() retourne un tableau associatif
qui contient la ligne lue dans le résultat result et
déplace le pointeur interne de données.
mysql_fetch_assoc() revient à appeler la fonction
mysql_fetch_array() avec MYSQL_ASSOC
en tant que second paramètre. Cette fonction retourne uniquement
un tableau associatif.
Liste de paramètres
-
result -
La ressource de résultat qui vient d'être évaluée. Ce résultat vient de l'appel à la fonction mysql_query().
Valeurs de retour
Retourne un tableau associatif de chaînes
qui contient la ligne lue dans le résultat result,
ou bien false s'il ne reste plus de lignes à lire.
Si plusieurs colonnes portent le même nom, la dernière aura la priorité. Pour accéder aux autres colonnes du même nom, vous devez utiliser la fonction mysql_fetch_row() avec les indices numériques ou utiliser les alias sur les noms. Regardez la documentation sur la fonction mysql_fetch_array() pour plus d'informations sur les alias.
Exemples
Exemple #1 Exemple avec mysql_fetch_assoc()
<?php
$conn = mysql_connect("localhost", "mysql_user", "mysql_password");
if (!$conn) {
echo "Impossible de se connecter à la base de données : " . mysql_error();
exit;
}
if (!mysql_select_db("mydbname")) {
echo "Impossible de sélectionner la base mydbname : " . mysql_error();
exit;
}
$sql = "SELECT id as userid, fullname, userstatus
FROM sometable
WHERE userstatus = 1";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
if (!$result) {
echo "Impossible d'exécuter la requête ($sql) dans la base : " . mysql_error();
exit;
}
if (mysql_num_rows($result) == 0) {
echo "Aucune ligne trouvée, rien à afficher.";
exit;
}
// Tant qu'une ligne existe, place cette ligne dans la variable $row
// sous la forme d'un tableau associatif.
// Note : Si vous n'attendez qu'une seule ligne, oubliez la boucle
// Note : Si vous utilisez extract($row); dans la boucle suivante
// vous créerez $userid, $fullname et $userstatus
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
echo $row["userid"];
echo $row["fullname"];
echo $row["userstatus"];
}
mysql_free_result($result);
?>Notes
Note: Performance
Une chose importante à noter est que l'utilisation de mysql_fetch_assoc() n'est pas significativement plus lent que l'utilisation de mysql_fetch_row(), alors qu'il fournit des valeurs significatives ajoutées.
Note: Les noms des champs retournés par cette fonction sont sensibles à la casse.
Note: Cette fonction définit les champs NULL à la valeur PHP
null.

Worth pointing out that the internal row pointer is incremented once the data is collected for the current row.
This means that multiple calls will iterate through the row data, so you DONT need to mysql_data_seek(..) between calls.
This is noted in the mysql_fetch_row() docs, but not here!?

Please be advised that the resource result that you pass to this function can be thought of as being passed by reference because a resource is simply a pointer to a memory location.
Because of this, you can not loop through a resource result twice in the same script before resetting the pointer back to the start position.
For example:
----------------
<?php
// Assume We Already Queried Our Database.
// Loop Through Result Set.
while( $queryContent = mysql_fetch_row( $queryResult ) {
// Display.
echo $queryContent[ 0 ];
}
// We looped through the resource result already so the
// the pointer is no longer pointing at any rows.
// If we decide to loop through the same resource result
// again, the function will always return false because it
// will assume there are no more rows.
// So the following code, if executed after the previous code
// segment will not work.
while( $queryContent = mysql_fetch_row( $queryResult ) {
// Display.
echo $queryContent[ 0 ];
}
// Because $queryContent is now equal to FALSE, the loop
// will not be entered.
?>
----------------
The only solution to this is to reset the pointer to make it point at the first row again before the second code segment, so now the complete code will look as follows:
----------------
<?php
// Assume We Already Queried Our Database.
// Loop Through Result Set.
while( $queryContent = mysql_fetch_row( $queryResult ) {
// Display.
echo $queryContent[ 0 ];
}
// Reset Our Pointer.
mysql_data_seek( $queryResult );
// Loop Again.
while( $queryContent = mysql_fetch_row( $queryResult ) {
// Display.
echo $queryContent[ 0 ];
}
?>
----------------
Of course you would have to do extra checks to make sure that the number of rows in the result is not 0 or else mysql_data_seek itself will return false and an error will be raised.
Also please note that this applies to all functions that fetch result sets, including mysql_fetch_row, mysql_fetch_assos, and mysql_fetch_array.

Thanks to to R. Bradley for the implode idea. The following fixes a few bugs and includes quote_smart functionality (and has been tested)
<?php
function mysql_insert_assoc ($my_table, $my_array) {
//
// Insert values into a MySQL database
// Includes quote_smart code to foil SQL Injection
//
// A call to this function of:
//
// $val1 = "foobar";
// $val2 = 495;
// mysql_insert_assoc("tablename", array(col1=>$val1, col2=>$val2, col3=>"val3", col4=>720, col5=>834.987));
//
// Sends the following query:
// INSERT INTO 'tablename' (col1, col2, col3, col4, col5) values ('foobar', 495, 'val3', 720, 834.987)
//
global $db_link;
// Find all the keys (column names) from the array $my_array
$columns = array_keys($my_array);
// Find all the values from the array $my_array
$values = array_values($my_array);
// quote_smart the values
$values_number = count($values);
for ($i = 0; $i < $values_number; $i++)
{
$value = $values[$i];
if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) { $value = stripslashes($value); }
if (!is_numeric($value)) { $value = "'" . mysql_real_escape_string($value, $db_link) . "'"; }
$values[$i] = $value;
}
// Compose the query
$sql = "INSERT INTO $my_table ";
// create comma-separated string of column names, enclosed in parentheses
$sql .= "(" . implode(", ", $columns) . ")";
$sql .= " values ";
// create comma-separated string of values, enclosed in parentheses
$sql .= "(" . implode(", ", $values) . ")";
$result = @mysql_query ($sql) OR die ("<br />\n<span style=\"color:red\">Query: $sql UNsuccessful :</span> " . mysql_error() . "\n<br />");
return ($result) ? true : false;
}
?>

Note that the field names quoted within $row[] are case sensitive whereas many sql commands are case insensitive.

Fetching all the results to array with one liner:

$result = mysql_query(...);
while(($resultArray[] = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) || array_pop($resultArray));

It probably without saying, but using list() in conjunction with mysql_fetch_assoc() does not work - use mysql_fetch_row() instead.
<?php
$sql = "SELECT `id`,`field`,`value` FROM `table`";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
// this results in empty values for rowID,fieldName,myValue
list($rowID,$fieldName,$myValue) = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
// this is what you want:
list($rowID,$fieldName,$myValue) = mysql_fetch_row($result);
?>

In response to Sergiu's function - implode() would make things a lot easier ... as below:
<?php
function mysql_insert_assoc ($my_table, $my_array) {
// Find all the keys (column names) from the array $my_array
$columns = array_keys($my_array);
// Find all the values from the array
$values = array_values($my_array);
// We compose the query
$sql = "insert into `$my_table` ";
// implode the column names, inserting "\", \"" between each (but not after the last one)
// we add the enclosing quotes at the same time
$sql .= "(\"" . implode("\", \"", $column_names) . "\")";
$sql .= " values ";
// Same with the values
$sql .= "(" . implode(", ", $values) . ")";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
if ($result)
{
echo "The row was added sucessfully";
return true;
}
else
{
echo ("The row was not added<br>The error was" . mysql_error());
return false;
}
}
?>
Thus, a call to this function of:
mysql_insert_assoc("tablename", array("col1"=>"val1", "col2"=>"val2"));
Sends the following sql query to mysql:
INSERT INTO `tablename` ("col1", "col2") VALUES ("val1", "val2")

To sum up moverton at northshropshiredc dot gov dot uk and Olivier Fabre:
If the query is "SELECT something1, something2, .... FROM tbl WHERE some_condition", the keys in the returned array will be 'something1', 'something2', etc. *even for those "somethings" that are not just field names*.
Examples of non-fieldname "somethings" are:
NULL
NOW
MAX(some_fieldname)
I haven't tested whether this applies to table.fieldname, but I see no reason why it shouldn't (I'd suspect a typo in my code if I didn't get the expected results; I certainly have had my share of them!)
I found it most convenient to check for typos by simply var_dumping the resulting row, like this:
<?php
echo '<pre>Got this row:'
var_dump ($row);
echo '</pre>';
?>
where $row is the result from the last call to mysql_fetch_assoc.

When you have to loop multiple times through the result of a query you can set the result pointer to 0 (zero) with mysql_data_seek ()
The advantage is that you do not have to query database twice with te same query :)
So:
<?php
$query = "
SELECT *
FROM database
";
//Query database
$result = mysql_query ($query);
//Iterate result
while ($record = mysql_fetch_assoc ($result)){
print_r ($record);
}
...
//Point to 0 (zero)
mysql_data_seek ($result, 0);
//Re-use the result
while ($record = mysql_fetch_assoc ($result)){
print_r ($record);
}
?>

What if you *want* a two dimensional array? Useful for output as an HTML table, for instance.
function mysql_resultTo2DAssocArray ( $result) {
$i=0;
$ret = array();
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
foreach ($row as $key => $value) {
$ret[$i][$key] = $value;
}
$i++;
}
return ($ret);
}
print_r(mysql_resultTo2DAssocArray(mysql_query("SELECT * FROM something")));
Array ( [0] => Array ( [symbol] => ARNA
[datetime] => 2006-02-17 16:00:00
[price] => 16.83 )
[1] => Array ( [symbol] => CALP
[datetime] => 2006-02-17 16:00:00
[price] => 6.54 )
[2] => Array ( [symbol] => CROX
[datetime] => 2006-02-17 16:00:00
[price] => 27.4 ))

Here's a nifty function to copy a whole table to another table. Takes as its arguments
$z -> the result of a SQL query with columns matching the table you're copying into.
$toTable -> string name of the table to copy into.
$link_identifier -> the db resource of the table you're copying into.
If anyone can find a faster way to do this, I'd be glad to know about it...
<?php
function mysql_multirow_copy($z,$toTable,$link_identifier) {
$fields = "";
for ($i=0;$i<mysql_num_fields($z);$i++) {
if ($i>0) {
$fields .= ",";
}
$fields .= mysql_field_name($z,$i);
}
$q = "INSERT INTO $toTable ($fields) VALUES";
$c = 0;
mysql_data_seek($z,0); //critical reset in case $z has been parsed beforehand. !
while ($a = mysql_fetch_assoc($z)) {
foreach ($a as $as) {
$a[key($a)] = addslashes($as);
next ($a);
}
if ($c>0) {
$q .= ",";
}
$q .= "('".implode(array_values($a),"','")."')";
$c++;
}
$q .= ";";
$z = mysql_query($q,$link_identifier);
return ($q);
}
?>

function array2table: small fix to the post below that handles data returned from mysql that is either null or 0...
This is a useful script for displaying MySQL results in an HTML table.
<?
function array2table($arr,$width)
{
$count = count($arr);
if($count > 0){
reset($arr);
$num = count(current($arr));
echo "<table align=\"center\" border=\"1\"cellpadding=\"5\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"$width\">\n";
echo "<tr>\n";
foreach(current($arr) as $key => $value){
echo "<th>";
echo $key." ";
echo "</th>\n";
}
echo "</tr>\n";
while ($curr_row = current($arr)) {
echo "<tr>\n";
$col = 1;
while (false !== ($curr_field = current($curr_row))) {
echo "<td>";
echo $curr_field." ";
echo "</td>\n";
next($curr_row);
$col++;
}
while($col <= $num){
echo "<td> </td>\n";
$col++;
}
echo "</tr>\n";
next($arr);
}
echo "</table>\n";
}
}
?>
<?
// Add DB connection script here
$query = "SELECT * FROM mytable";
$result = mysql_query($query);
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){
$array[] = $row; }
array2table($array,600); // Will output a table of 600px width
?>

Actually, Olivier, you're completely wrong about that, because there's a bug in your sample code. It will indeed return $row['MAX(time)'] - you have to pass the MySQL resource to mysql_fetch_assoc() and you're not doing that. This:
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($conn)
...where $conn is your DB connection, would in fact produce a result. The complete example below is taken from my own self-written content management system:
$query = 'SELECT MAX(ctRevDate) FROM content group by ctPage';
$querySet = mysql_query($query, $conn);
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($querySet);
print_r($row);
This produces:
Array
(
[MAX(ctRevDate)] => 2004-01-15
)
..on my testbed. So it doesn't in fact need an alias at all.

Although deprecated as of PHP 5.5, the mySQL function do NOT trigger an E_DEPRECATED error
