mysql_create_db
I needed to "peek" at the next record in order to see if fetching it would go too far. So I want to do a fetch, followed by seek(-1).
I could find no function to move the internal row pointer relative to it's current position, or to retrieve it as a row number as required by mysql_data_seek(). This limits the function's usefulness to resetting the row to 0, unless you track the row number yourself.
If you use a While loop to step through the results, you can increment a tracking index at the bottom of the loop. But be sure never to use Continue; which would bypass your index. And document this restriction for the person who needs to maintain your code. It's probably better to use a For loop, which makes the index explicit.
In either case be sure to range check the index when you manipulate it. E.G. When I "peek" at the next record I must check for index>=count (end of data). Or if I decrement the index, make sure it does not go negative. Again, document why you are coding it this way, so the next programmer doesn't "correct" the inelegant code.
mysql_data_seek
(PHP 4, PHP 5, PECL mysql:1.0)
mysql_data_seek — 内部的な結果ポインタを移動する
説明
bool mysql_data_seek
( resource $result
, int $row_number
)
mysql_data_seek() は、指定した結果 ID （result_identifier）が指す MySQL 結果の内部ポインタが指定した行番号 （row_number）を指すように移動します。 この後、たとえば mysql_fetch_assoc() のような MySQL のフェッチ関数をコールした場合には、 ここで指定した行の内容が返されます。
row_number は 0 から始まります。 row_number は 0 から mysql_num_rows() - 1 までの範囲にあるべきです。 しかし、もし結果セットが空（mysql_num_rows() == 0） の場合、0 へのシークは E_WARNING を発生して失敗し、mysql_data_seek() は FALSE を返します。
返り値
成功した場合に TRUE を、失敗した場合に FALSE を返します。
例
例1 mysql_data_seek() の例
<?php
$link = mysql_connect('localhost', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password');
if (!$link) {
die('接続できませんでした: ' . mysql_error());
}
$db_selected = mysql_select_db('sample_db');
if (!$db_selected) {
die('データベースを選択できませんでした: ' . mysql_error());
}
$query = 'SELECT last_name, first_name FROM friends';
$result = mysql_query($query);
if (!$result) {
die('クエリは失敗しました: ' . mysql_error());
}
/* 行を逆順で取得する */
for ($i = mysql_num_rows($result) - 1; $i >= 0; $i--) {
if (!mysql_data_seek($result, $i)) {
echo "行 $i をシークできません: " . mysql_error() . "\n";
continue;
}
if (!($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))) {
continue;
}
echo $row['last_name'] . ' ' . $row['first_name'] . "<br />\n";
}
mysql_free_result($result);
?>
注意
注意: mysql_data_seek() は、 mysql_query() との組み合わせでのみ利用可能です。 mysql_unbuffered_query() と組み合わせることはできません。

A helpful note about the 'resource' data type.
Since the 'resource' variable is pointing to a row in a result set at any given time, you can think of it as being passed to this function by reference every time you pass it or assign it to a variable.
<?
$sql = "SELECT * from <table>";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
$temp_result = $result;
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($temp_result)) {
// do stuff with $row
}
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
// This code will never run because the 'resource' variable is pointing past the end of the result set,
// even though it was *not* assigned by reference to $result2.
}
?>
Therefore, the following snipits are functionally identical:
<?
// Start snipit 1
$sql = "SELECT * from <table>";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
// do stuff with $row
}
mysql_data_seek($result, 0);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
// do other stuff with $row
}
// Start snipit 2
$sql = "SELECT * from <table>";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
$temp_result = $result;
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($temp_result)) {
// do stuff with $row
}
mysql_data_seek($result, 0);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($temp_result)) {
// do other stuff with $row
}
?>

hello, this script would be easy to understand for those that are novice in php whose want to understand about this function:
the table "user" have 2 columns "id" and "name".
"user" content:
position 0: "id"=195342481 "name"='Arthur'
position 1: "id"=179154675 "name"='John'
>>position 2<<: "id"=157761949 "name"='April' >>third row<<
position 3: "id"=124492684 "name"='Tammy'
position 4: "id"=191346457 "name"='Mike'
<?php
mysql_connect("localhost", "root")
mysql_select_db("test");
$sql = mysql_query("select * from user");
mysql_data_seek($sql, 2);
echo "<table border=1>";
while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($sql)){
echo "<tr><td>$row[0]</td><td>$row[1]</td></tr>";
}
echo "</tabla>";
?>
explanation:
mysql_data_seek move internal result pointer to the third row of table user. Thus mysql_fetch_row will begin by aprils row.

your loop can be done like this as well and i guess this is faster:
$r=mysql_query("select user,id,ip from accounts limit 10");
unset($users); // Just to be sure
while($users[] = mysql_fetch_row);
array_pop($users); // Drop the last entry which is FALSE

/*here is a nice function for converting a mysql result row set into a 2d array, a time saver if need small data from several rows, saves you from having to do Alot of queries... would be nice to have this built into PHP future versions :) */
// simple example query
$r=mysql_query("select user,id,ip from accounts limit 10");
//starts the for loop, using mysql_num_rows() to count total
//amount of rows returned by $r
for($i=0; $i<mysql_num_rows($r); $i++){
//advances the row in the mysql resource $r
mysql_data_seek($r,$i);
//assigns the array keys, $users[row][field]
$users[$i]=mysql_fetch_row($r);
}
//simple, hope someone can use it :)
