ldap_get_attributes - Get attributes from a search result entry

SYNOPSIS
       array ldap_get_attributes (resource  $link_identifier, resource	$result_entry_identifier)

DESCRIPTION
	Reads attributes and values from an entry in the search result.

	Having	located  a specific entry in the directory, you can find out what information is held for that entry by using this call. You would
       use this call for an application which "browses" directory entries and/or where you do not know the structure of the directory entries.	In
       many  applications  you will be searching for a specific attribute such as an email address or a surname, and won't care what other data is
       held.

       return_value["count"] = number of attributes in the entry
       return_value[0] = first attribute
       return_value[n] = nth attribute

       return_value["attribute"]["count"] = number of values for attribute
       return_value["attribute"][0] = first value of the attribute
       return_value["attribute"][i] = (i+1)th value of the attribute

PARAMETERS
	      o $link_identifier
		- An LDAP link identifier, returned by ldap_connect(3).

	      o $result_entry_identifier
		-

RETURN VALUES
	Returns a complete entry information in a multi-dimensional array on success and FALSE on error.

EXAMPLES
       Example #1

	       Show the list of attributes held for a particular directory entry

	      <?php
	      // $ds is the link identifier for the directory

	      // $sr is a valid search result from a prior call to
	      // one of the ldap directory search calls

	      $entry = ldap_first_entry($ds, $sr);

	      $attrs = ldap_get_attributes($ds, $entry);

	      echo $attrs["count"] . " attributes held for this entry:<p>";

	      for ($i=0; $i < $attrs["count"]; $i++) {
		  echo $attrs[$i] . "<br />";
	      }
	      ?>
