ingres_fetch_assoc - Fetch a row of result into an associative array

SYNOPSIS

       array ingres_fetch_assoc (resource  $result)

DESCRIPTION

	This  function	is  stores  the data fetched from a query executed using ingres_query(3) in an associative array, using the field names as
       keys.

	With regard to speed, the function is identical to ingres_fetch_object(3), and almost as quick as ingres_fetch_row(3) (the  difference	is
       insignificant).

	By  default,  arrays created by ingres_fetch_assoc(3) start from position 1 and not 0 as with other DBMS extensions. The starting position
       can be adjusted to 0 using the configuration parameter ingres.array_index_start.

PARAMETERS

	      o $result
		- The query result identifier

RETURN VALUES

	Returns an associative array that corresponds to the fetched row, or FALSE if there are no more rows

EXAMPLES

	      while ($row = ingres_fetch_assoc($result)) {
		  echo $row["user_id"];  // using associative array
		  echo $row["fullname"];
	      }
	      ?>
