dbase_get_record_with_names - Gets a record from a database as an associative array

SYNOPSIS

       array dbase_get_record_with_names (int  $dbase_identifier, int  $record_number)

DESCRIPTION

	Gets a record from a dBase database as an associative array.

PARAMETERS

	      o $dbase_identifier
		- The database link identifier, returned by dbase_open(3) or dbase_create(3).

	      o $record_number
		- The index of the record.

RETURN VALUES

	An associative array with the record. This will also include a key named deleted which is set to 1 if the record has been marked for dele-
       tion (see dbase_delete_record(3)).

	Each field is converted to the appropriate PHP type, except:

	      o Dates are left as strings.

	      o Integers that would have caused an overflow (> 32 bits) are returned as strings.

	On error, dbase_get_record_with_names(3) will return FALSE.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      Listing all the registered members in the database

	      <?php
	      // open in read-only mode
	      $db = dbase_open('/tmp/test.dbf', 0);

	      if ($db) {
		$record_numbers = dbase_numrecords($db);
		for ($i = 1; $i <= $record_numbers; $i++) {
		    $row = dbase_get_record_with_names($db, $i);
		    if ($row['ismember'] == 1) {
			echo "Member #$i: " . trim($row['name']) . "
";
		    }
		}
