Example #1 oci_fetch(3) with defined variables <?php $conn = oci_connect('hr', 'welcome', 'localhost/XE'); if (!$conn) { $e = oci_error(); trigger_error(htmlentities($e['message'], ENT_QUOTES), E_USER_ERROR); } $sql = 'SELECT location_id, city FROM locations WHERE location_id < 1200'; $stid = oci_parse($conn, $sql); // The defines MUST be done before executing oci_define_by_name($stid, 'LOCATION_ID', $locid); oci_define_by_name($stid, 'CITY', $city); oci_execute($stid); // Each fetch populates the previously defined variables with the next row's data while (oci_fetch($stid)) { echo "Location id $locid is $city<br> "; } // Displays: // Location id 1000 is Roma // Location id 1100 is Venice oci_free_statement($stid); oci_close($conn); ?> Example #2 oci_fetch(3) with oci_result(3) <?php $conn = oci_connect('hr', 'welcome', 'localhost/XE'); if (!$conn) { $e = oci_error(); trigger_error(htmlentities($e['message'], ENT_QUOTES), E_USER_ERROR); } $sql = 'SELECT location_id, city FROM locations WHERE location_id < 1200'; $stid = oci_parse($conn, $sql); oci_execute($stid); while (oci_fetch($stid)) { echo oci_result($stid, 'LOCATION_ID') . " is "; echo oci_result($stid, 'CITY') . "<br> "; } // Displays: // 1000 is Roma // 1100 is Venice oci_free_statement($stid); oci_close($conn); ?> NOTES
