RE: [PHP] How to obtain all the fields' names of a MySQL table?

Why not to look into source code of PHPLIB? The class db_mysql has a function called metadata (I think) - it does exactly that and much more. You can copy the function only or use the class for all your db manipulations if you wish. Maxim Maletsky PHPBeginner.com -Original Message-

Depending on what exactly you are doing you should probably use http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-list-fields.php or http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-fetch-field.php Sheridan Saint-Michel Website Administrator FoxJet, an ITW Company www.foxjet.com - Original Message

How about this... $db = name_of_database; $query = DESCRIBE table_name; $query = mysql_db_query($db,$query); while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($query)) { echo $row[0]br\n; } -Original Message- From: Alex Shi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, September 25, 2001 12:03 PM To:
