What is the best way to produce a report listing the fieldname and then the data in that field. It is a report containing only one row from a table, but I don't want to hard code the fields since they change often.
I can get the field names dynamically like this:
$fields = mysql_list_fields("Network", "Subnets"); $num_columns = mysql_num_fields($fields); for($ i = 0; $i < $num_columns; $i++) { echo mysql_field_name($fields, $i); }
now is where I get confused....what I would like to happen is do a query on a single row and put the results into mysql_fetch_assoc and during the prior loop put the column name into the loop of the data. Something like:
$fields = mysql_list_fields("Network", "Subnets"); $num_columns = mysql_num_fields($fields); $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE ID = '$ID'; $field = mysql_fetch_assoc($result) for($ i = 0; $i < $num_columns; $i++) { echo "<b>" . mysql_field_name($fields, $i) . ": </b>" . $field[mysql_field_name($fields, $i)] . "<br>\n";
All you really need here is:
$sth = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE ID = '$ID'");
$rec = mysql_fetch_assoc($sth);
foreach($rec as $field => $value) {
echo '<b>'.$field.': </b>'.$value.'<br/>';
