mysql_field_type -- Get the type of the specified field in a result
Description
string mysql_field_type (iresource result, int
field_offset)
mysql_field_type() is similar to the
mysql_field_name() function. The arguments are identical, but the field type is returned
instead. The field type will be one of "int", "real", "string", "blob", and others as detailed in
the MySQL documentation.

Example 1. MySQL field types
<?php
mysql_connect("localhost:3306");
mysql_select_db("wisconsin");
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM onek");
$fields = mysql_num_fields($result);
$rows = mysql_num_rows($result);
$i = 0;
$table = mysql_field_table($result, $i);
echo "Your '".$table."' table has ".$fields." fields and ".$rows." records <BR>";
echo "The table has the following fields <BR>";
while ($i < $fields) {
$type = mysql_field_type($result, $i);
$name = mysql_field_name($result, $i);
$len = mysql_field_len($result, $i);
$flags = mysql_field_flags($result, $i);
echo $type." ".$name." ".$len." ".$flags."<BR>";
$i++;
}
mysql_close();
?>

For downward compatibility mysql_fieldtype() can also be used. This is deprecated,
however.
