http://blog.ulf-wendel.de/2011/using-mysql-stored-procedures-with-php-mysqli/

  $mysqli = new mysqli("localhost", "root", "", "test");
if (!$mysqli->query("DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS p") ||
    !$mysqli->query('CREATE PROCEDURE p(OUT msg VARCHAR(50)) BEGIN SELECT "Hi!" INTO msg; END;'))
   echo "Stored procedure creation failed: (" . $mysqli->errno . ") " . $mysqli->error;

if (!$mysqli->query("SET @msg = ''") ||
    !$mysqli->query("CALL p(@msg)"))
 echo "CALL failed: (" . $mysqli->errno . ") " . $mysqli->error;

if (!($res = $mysqli->query("SELECT @msg as _p_out")))
 echo "Fetch failed: (" . $mysqli->errno . ") " . $mysqli->error;

$row = $res->fetch_assoc();
echo $row['_p_out'];
