EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      Object oriented style

	      <?php
	      /* Open a connection */
	      $mysqli = new mysqli("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "world");

	      /* check connection */
	      if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
		  printf("Connect failed: %s
", mysqli_connect_error());
		  exit();
	      }

	      $query = "SELECT Name, CountryCode FROM City ORDER BY Name";
	      if ($result = $mysqli->query($query)) {

		  /* seek to row no. 400 */
		  $result->data_seek(399);

		  /* fetch row */
		  $row = $result->fetch_row();

		  printf ("City: %s  Countrycode: %s
", $row[0], $row[1]);

		  /* free result set*/
		  $result->close();
	      }

	      /* close connection */
	      $mysqli->close();
	      ?>

       Example #2

	      Procedural style

	      <?php
	      /* Open a connection */
	      $link = mysqli_connect("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "world");

	      /* check connection */
	      if (!$link) {
		  printf("Connect failed: %s
", mysqli_connect_error());
		  exit();
	      }

	      $query = "SELECT Name, CountryCode FROM City ORDER BY Name";

	      if ($result = mysqli_query($link, $query)) {

		  /* seek to row no. 400 */
		  mysqli_data_seek($result, 399);

		  /* fetch row */
		  $row = mysqli_fetch_row($result);

		  printf ("City: %s  Countrycode: %s
", $row[0], $row[1]);

		  /* free result set*/
		  mysqli_free_result($result);
	      }

	      /* close connection */
	      mysqli_close($link);
	      ?>
