msql_result

MSQL_RESULT(3)															    MSQL_RESULT(3)

msql_result - Get result data

SYNOPSIS

       string msql_result (resource  $result, int  $row, [mixed  $field])

DESCRIPTION

       msql_result(3) returns the contents of one cell from a mSQL result set.

	When  working  on  large  result sets, you should consider using one of the functions that fetch an entire row (specified below). As these
       functions return the contents of multiple cells in one function call, they are often much quicker than msql_result(3).

	Recommended high-performance alternatives: msql_fetch_row(3), msql_fetch_array(3), and msql_fetch_object(3).

PARAMETERS

	      o $
		result -The result resource that is being evaluated. This result comes from a call to msql_query(3).

	      o $row
		- The row offset.

	      o $field
		- Can be the field's offset, or the field's name, or the field's table dot field's name (tablename.fieldname.). If the column name
		has been aliased ('select foo as bar from ...'), use the alias instead of the column name.

	      Note

		      Specifying a numeric field offset is much quicker than specifying a fieldname or tablename.fieldname.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns the contents of the cell at the row and offset in the specified mSQL result set.
