This is a function that returns the names a table field on a pgsql database
$skips is simply the field names that will be left out of the result.
This function acts differently on two different servers
Both servers have PHP Version 4.3.10-10ubuntu4.3
AND PostgreSQL(libp q) Version 7.4.6
On one server, the function acts as expected, returning an array with
the field names. On the other server, some of the field names come up 6
times instead of once. Apparently, something in my sql is creating
multiple values for some names. My sql is kind of fuzzy, can you see the
mistake ?
function fieldnames($tab le, $skips=NULL){
$sql="SELECT a.attname FROM pg_attribute a, pg_class c WHERE
c.relname = '$table' AND a.attnum > 0 AND a.attrelid = c.oid ORDER BY
a.attnum ";
$result=q($sql) ;
$skips=mkarr($s kips);
while($row=pg_f etch_assoc($res ult)){
if(in_array($ro w['attname'], $skips))continu e;
$fnames[]=$row['attname'];
}
return $fnames;
} 1 1638

Since the problem seems to be in the SQL code, might I suggest that a
PostgreSQL newsgroup would be more appropriate?

Hi,
I'd like to poll a database and get the table contents, as well as the field
names from that table. I've been to php.net but this time I cannot find
something helpful.
I can get the data, and retrieve it into an array noproblem.
I can get the data+fieldnames and put it into a list.

How do I get to the fieldnames of a table in a recordset?
I have a recordset which I output into HTML.
And on data from certian columns I need to perform different actions.
I would like to use the fieldnames rather then theit sequential numbers, to
avoid the need to re-do the code if another field is inserted into the
table.

Hello,
I have had a request, one of our tables is used as a report and I have been
asked that all fieldnames for months have dashes in them,
like Jan-05 instead of Jan05 and so on...
Now what we have is a CURSOR which loops through all values in another table
generating these fieldnames, like 'Jan-05', Feb-05' etc..
Then the table definition is modified so these months display as fieldnames.

In the query builder I made an edit-query in which I have linked table A to
table B on IDnr. For every record that matches I want 5 fields of table A to
get the values of corresponding fields in table B. I'm able to make this
query but only by typing the table B fieldnames in the 'change to'-row. Is
there some easy way to drag those fieldnames to that row or another way to
make this easier?
Thanks,

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
