mysql_field_typeGet the type of the specified field in a result

Descrierea

string mysql_field_type ( resource $result , int $field_offset )

mysql_field_type() is similar to the mysql_field_name() function. The arguments are identical, but the field type is returned instead.

Parametri

result

Rezultatul de tip resource , care este evaluat. Acest rezultat provine de la apelul funcţiei mysql_query().

field_offset

Deplasamentul numeric al câmpului. field_offset începe de la 0. Dacă field_offset nu există, se generează de asemenea o eroare de nivel E_WARNING.

Valorile întroarse

The returned field type will be one of "int", "real", "string", "blob", and others as detailed in the » MySQL documentation.

Exemple

Example #1 mysql_field_type() example

<?php
mysql_connect
("localhost""mysql_username""mysql_password");
mysql_select_db("mysql");
$result mysql_query("SELECT * FROM func");
$fields mysql_num_fields($result);
$rows   mysql_num_rows($result);
$table  mysql_field_table($result0);
echo 
"Your '" $table "' table has " $fields " fields and " $rows " record(s)\n";
echo 
"The table has the following fields:\n";
for (
$i=0$i $fields$i++) {
    
$type  mysql_field_type($result$i);
    
$name  mysql_field_name($result$i);
    
$len   mysql_field_len($result$i);
    
$flags mysql_field_flags($result$i);
    echo 
$type " " $name " " $len " " $flags "\n";
}
mysql_free_result($result);
mysql_close();
?>

Exemplul de mai sus va afişa ceva similar cu:

Your 'func' table has 4 fields and 1 record(s)
The table has the following fields:
string name 64 not_null primary_key binary
int ret 1 not_null
string dl 128 not_null
string type 9 not_null enum

In MySQL 4.1.x, the four TEXT types (TINYTEXT, TEXT, MEDIUMTEXT, and LONGTEXT) return 'blob" as field types, not "string".

Additional to the note below:
If you're using the "SHOW FIELDS" syntax, be sure that you're adding the table name instead of the db name in the "FROM" parameter:

<?php
$result
= mysql_query("SHOW FIELDS FROM table");
?>

Also possible:

<?php
$result
= mysql_query("SHOW FIELDS FROM table.db");
?>

or this:

<?php
$result
= mysql_query("DESCRIBE table");
?>

Condensed version of what KRANG said.

To get info on the MYSQL field type, use this code

<?
$result = mysql_query("SHOW FIELDS FROM db_name");

$i = 1;
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { //go through one field at a time
  echo "Field $i: ";
  print_r($row) //display all information about A field which can be accessed thru the "$row" array.
  $i++;
}
?>

Will display something like:
Field 1: Array ( [Field] => SN [Type] => mediumint(8) unsigned [Null] => [Key] => PRI [Default] => [Extra] => auto_increment ) , SN, mediumint(8) unsigned
Field 2: Array ( [Field] => ENTITY_ID [Type] => varchar(20) [Null] => [Key] => [Default] => [Extra] => ) , ENTITY_ID, varchar(20)

This function is broken in 4.4.1 (works fine in 4.3.X).

The note blow seems incomplete/incorrect. For php 4.3 and mysql 4.x the returned values are:

CHAR, VARCHAR, TINYTEXT, TEXT, MEDIUMTEXT, LONGTEXT, ENUM, SET: string
TINYINT, SMALLINT, MEDIUMINT, INT, INTEGER, BIGINT: int
FLOAT, DOUBLE, DECIMAL, NUMERIC: real
TIMESTAMP: timestamp
YEAR: year
DATE: date
TIME: time
DATETIME: datetime
TINYBLOB, MEDIUMBLOB, LONGBLOB, BLOB: blob

if mysql-field-type seems to return the wrong values, you may encounter an compatibility problem of mysql, php and the libraries you use. Try reinstalling php and mysql.

Hmm for the previous comment, note that SHOW FIELDS is an alias of SHOW COLUMNS. Very useful if you need to search the mysql-documentation. Here is the link anyway...

The field type returns what PHP classifies the data found in the field, not how it is stored in the database; use the following example to retrieve the MySQL information about the field....

$USERNAME = '';
$PASSWORD = '';

$DATABASE = '';
$TABLE_NAME = '';

mysql_connect('localhost', $USERNAME, $PASSWORD)
    or die ("Could not connect");

$result = mysql_query("SHOW FIELDS FROM $DATABASE.$TABLE_NAME");

$i = 0;

while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
  echo $row['Field'] . ' ' . $row['Type'];
}
