/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
    
printf("Connect failed: %s\n"mysqli_connect_error());
    exit();
}

$query "SELECT Name, SurfaceArea from Country ORDER BY Code LIMIT 5";

if (
$result $mysqli->query($query)) {

    
/* Get field information for all columns */
    
while ($finfo $result->fetch_field()) {

        
printf("Name:     %s\n"$finfo->name);
        
printf("Table:    %s\n"$finfo->table);
        
printf("max. Len: %d\n"$finfo->max_length);
        
printf("Flags:    %d\n"$finfo->flags);
        
printf("Type:     %d\n\n"$finfo->type);
    }
    
$result->close();
}

/* close connection */
$mysqli->close();
?>

Example #2 Procedural style

$link 
mysqli_connect("localhost""my_user""my_password""world");

/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
    
printf("Connect failed: %s\n"mysqli_connect_error());
    exit();
}

$query "SELECT Name, SurfaceArea from Country ORDER BY Code LIMIT 5";

if (
$result mysqli_query($link$query)) {

    
/* Get field information for all fields */
    
while ($finfo mysqli_fetch_field($result)) {

        
printf("Name:     %s\n"$finfo->name);
        
printf("Table:    %s\n"$finfo->table);
        
printf("max. Len: %d\n"$finfo->max_length);
