MDB2 Users tutorial - using results

24 April, 2007 (10:36) | MySQL, PEAR | By: clive


If you’re new to MDB2 or maybe even if you’re a bit rusty as to which method to use to get the results that you want out of the database, then this tutorial is for you. It’s also a reference tool so you’ll end up using it whenever you work with MDB2.

You run the index file and a drop-down list of all the methods you can use to get information out of your query result appears. Select one and a brief explanation of that method pops up together with an example of how it’s used. The using_results.php file contains all the code with comments for you to browse through. All in all a very useful tutorial and reference tool. I will be adding to this tutorial regularly until eventually it will contain all the methods applicable to the mdb2 package (configuration, connecting, querying, using results, etc). So check back here regularly to keep abreast of developments.

I’ve just completed updating this tutorial or reference. It now includes connecting to the database, using the manager module, making the query and using the results.

It’s pretty useful in that it lists example code and in some cases a description - all accessible from a drop-down menu.

You select from the drop-down menu what it is that you want to do and a description of how you go about doing this, together with sample code appears.

I’ll be uploading the latest file in a day or 2 - so watch this space!
