This is not mysqli_#() directly, but just mocked up here in this
email. Not guaranteed to work, but should give you the right idea at
least. ;-P
<?php
include('inc/config.php'); // Your configuration
include('inc/db.php'); // Your database connection info
$sql = "SHOW TABLES";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
foreach(mysql_fetch_assoc($result) as $k => $v) {
$ssql = "DESCRIBE ".mysql_real_escape_string($v);
$rresult = mysql_query($ssql);
echo "<b>".$k."</b>:<br />\n";
echo "<pre>\n";
print_r(mysql_fetch_assoc($rresult));
echo "</pre>\n";
echo "<br />\n";
}
?>
Dan I get roughly the idea, but alas I am stumped so easily in this
new ocean.. it frustrates me.
I have this code:
$db_billing=mysqli_connect(localhost,metheuser,mypass,billing);
if (mysqli_connect_error()) { die("Can't connect: " .
mysqli_connect_error()); }
//$dbname = 'billing';
$sql = "SHOW TABLES";
$result = mysql_query($sql); // line 53
foreach(mysql_fetch_assoc($result) as $k => $v) { // line 55
$ssql = "DESCRIBE ".mysql_real_escape_string($v);
$rresult = mysql_query($ssql);
echo "<b>".$k."</b>:<br />\n";
echo "<pre>\n";
print_r(mysql_fetch_assoc($rresult));
echo "</pre>\n";
echo "<br />\n";
}
Which is just giving these errors:
Warning: mysql_query() [function.mysql-query]: Access denied for user
'meee'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in /home/meee/public_html/
somedir/test.php on line 53

I am looking forward to when I have enough of my bearings that I can
just cruise around all the various docs and figure out my own
answers. Now there are just so many unknowns, I often can't tell
which way to even look to solve the issues.
