Bug description: Error in example 1 in the mysql_fetch_field doco
Description:
------------
In the english version of the manual, the documentation for
mysql_fetch_field, there's an error in example 1. The second line in the
while loop should use $i, not $result.
The line
$meta = mysql_fetch_field($result);
Should be:
$meta = mysql_fetch_field($i);
Expected result:
----------------
while ($i < mysql_num_fields($result)) {
echo "Information for column $i:<br />\n";
$meta = mysql_fetch_field($i);
if (!$meta) {
echo "No information available<br />\n";
}
Actual result:
--------------
while ($i < mysql_num_fields($result)) {
echo "Information for column $i:<br />\n";
$meta = mysql_fetch_field($result);
if (!$meta) {
echo "No information available<br />\n";
}
