mysql_data_seek
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
mysql_data_seek — Move internal result pointer
This extension is deprecated as of PHP 5.5.0, and will be removed in the future. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extension should be used. See also MySQL: choosing an API guide and related FAQ for more information. Alternatives to this function include:
- mysqli_data_seek()
PDO::FETCH_ORI_ABS
Description
$result
, int $row_number
)mysql_data_seek() moves the internal row pointer of the MySQL result associated with the specified result identifier to point to the specified row number. The next call to a MySQL fetch function, such as mysql_fetch_assoc(), would return that row.
row_number starts at 0. The
row_number should be a value in the range from 0 to
mysql_num_rows() - 1. However if the result set
is empty (mysql_num_rows() == 0), a seek to 0 will
fail with a E_WARNING and
mysql_data_seek() will return FALSE.
Parameters
-
result -
The result resource that is being evaluated. This result comes from a call to mysql_query().
-
row_number -
The desired row number of the new result pointer.
Return Values
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
Examples
Example #1 mysql_data_seek() example
<?php
$link = mysql_connect('localhost', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password');
if (!$link) {
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
$db_selected = mysql_select_db('sample_db');
if (!$db_selected) {
die('Could not select database: ' . mysql_error());
}
$query = 'SELECT last_name, first_name FROM friends';
$result = mysql_query($query);
if (!$result) {
die('Query failed: ' . mysql_error());
}
/* fetch rows in reverse order */
for ($i = mysql_num_rows($result) - 1; $i >= 0; $i--) {
if (!mysql_data_seek($result, $i)) {
echo "Cannot seek to row $i: " . mysql_error() . "\n";
continue;
}
if (!($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))) {
continue;
}
echo $row['last_name'] . ' ' . $row['first_name'] . "<br />\n";
}
mysql_free_result($result);
?>

/*here is a nice function for converting a mysql result row set into a 2d array, a time saver if need small data from several rows, saves you from having to do Alot of queries... would be nice to have this built into PHP future versions :) */
// simple example query
$r=mysql_query("select user,id,ip from accounts limit 10");
//starts the for loop, using mysql_num_rows() to count total
//amount of rows returned by $r
for($i=0; $i<mysql_num_rows($r); $i++){
//advances the row in the mysql resource $r
mysql_data_seek($r,$i);
//assigns the array keys, $users[row][field]
$users[$i]=mysql_fetch_row($r);
}
//simple, hope someone can use it :)

your loop can be done like this as well and i guess this is faster:
$r=mysql_query("select user,id,ip from accounts limit 10");
unset($users); // Just to be sure
while($users[] = mysql_fetch_row);
array_pop($users); // Drop the last entry which is FALSE
hello, this script would be easy to understand for those that are novice in php whose want to understand about this function:
the table "user" have 2 columns "id" and "name".
"user" content:
position 0: "id"=195342481 "name"='Arthur'
position 1: "id"=179154675 "name"='John'
>>position 2<<: "id"=157761949 "name"='April' >>third row<<
position 3: "id"=124492684 "name"='Tammy'
position 4: "id"=191346457 "name"='Mike'
<?php
mysql_connect("localhost", "root")
mysql_select_db("test");
$sql = mysql_query("select * from user");
mysql_data_seek($sql, 2);
echo "<table border=1>";
while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($sql)){
echo "<tr><td>$row[0]</td><td>$row[1]</td></tr>";
}
echo "</tabla>";
?>
explanation:
mysql_data_seek move internal result pointer to the third row of table user. Thus mysql_fetch_row will begin by april?s row.
Here, you can find the current pointer of selected row easily:
<?php
//selected row with id=4
$id = "4";
$result = mysql_query("select * from jos_components");
$num = mysql_num_rows($result);
for($i=0;$i<$num;$i++){
mysql_data_seek($result,$i);
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
if($row['id'] == $id){
$pointer = $i;
}
}
// current pointer for selected row
echo $pointer;
?>
