Question

So I am writing a small PHP framework for fun, and I have come to a point where I need to format an arbitrary query result into this format:

Array(<br>
[tablename]<br>
  [fieldname] => value<br>
  [fieldname] => value<br>
[tablename]<br>
  [fieldname] => value);<br>
<br>

If I was doing this in mysql, I would simply do it this way: $tmp[mysql_field_table][mysql_field_name] = $value. But I chose to do this project using mysqli, and I can’t seem to find an equivalent for mysql_field_table() so I can determine the table for each individual value. What is the ideal method for gaining this result?

Answer 1

Look at the example here in the manual; the return value of the function documented is an object with a member called ‘table’.

This gives you what you need.
