ifx_fetch_row

Synopsis

Returns

Array of column data

Description

ifx_fetch_row() fetches a row of data from the result handler obtained from ifx_prepare() or ifx_query() . The row is returned as an associative array with the column name as the array key. Subsequent calls to ifx_fetch_row() would return the next row in the result set, or FALSE if there are no more rows.

If blob columns are returned in the reasult set, the value of these columns are returned as integer blob id values for use in ifx_get_blob() . If the functions ifx_textasvarchar() or ifx_byteasvarchar() have been used to modify query output, blobs values will be returned as strings.

The position parameter is an optional parameter for a "fetch" operation on "scroll" cursors: "NEXT", "PREVIOUS", "CURRENT", "FIRST", "LAST" or a number. If you specify a number, an absolute row fetch is executed. This parameter is optional, and only valid for SCROLL cursors.
