dba_fetch -- Fetch data specified by key
Description
string
dba_fetch ( string key, resource handle)
string
dba_fetch ( string key, int skip, resource handle)
dba_fetch() fetches the data specified by
key from the database specified with
handle.
Key is the key the data is specified by.
Skip is the number of key-value pairs to
ignore when using cdb databases. This value is ignored for all other
databases which do not support multiple keys with the same name.
Handle is a database handle returned by
dba_open().
dba_fetch() returns the associated string or FALSE, if
the key/data pair is found or not found, respectively.
Note:
The skip parameter is available since PHP 4.3 to support cdb's
capability of multiple keys having the same name.
Note:
When working with inifiles this function accepts arrays as keys
where index 0 is the group and index 1 is the value name. See:
dba_key_split().
See also dba_exists(),
dba_delete(), dba_insert(),
dba_replace() and dba_key_split().
