hi, is there a faster way to retrieve data from postgresql using php aside from the conventional way of looping through the number of records returned by pg_num_rows then executing pg_fetch_row on each iteration? isn't it possible to get the entire result set returned by pg_exec and save that to a multi-dimensional array? this way the program can disconnect from the db and just get the data from the multi-dimensional array. this would also shorten the number of requests to postgresql. would appreaciate any suggestions. thanks! regards, -- Ric Mañalac http://www.webphilippines.com http://www.trabaho.com http://www.kasal.com Note: The information contained in this message may be privileged and confidential and protected from disclosure.
