mysqli_fetch_assoc returns multiple arrays, how to return a single array

[JustinK101]

Hello, I am using mysqli_fetch_assoc which is returning multiple rows, so it looks like:

 

while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
     print_r($row);
}

 

But this returns multiple arrays like:

 

Array ( [key] => air_conditioning [label] => Air Conditioning ) Array ( [key] => balcony [label] => Balcony ) Array ( [key] => cable [label] => Cable ) Array ( [key] => cleaning_service [label] => Cleaning Service ) Array ( [key] => data_ports [label] => Data Ports ) Array ( [key] => dishwasher [label] => Dishwasher ) Array ( [key] => fireplace [label] => Fireplace ) Array ( [key] => fitness_center [label] => Fitness Center ) Array ( [key] => garage [label] => Garage ) Array ( [key] => hardwood_floors [label] => Hardwood Floors ) Array ( [key] => internet [label] => Internet ) Array ( [key] => jacuzzi [label] => Jacuzzi ) Array ( [key] => kitchen_island [label] => Kitchen Island ) Array ( [key] => ocean_view [label] => Ocean View ) Array ( [key] => paid_electricity [label] => Electricity ) Array ( [key] => paid_gas [label] => Gas ) Array ( [key] => paid_water [label] => Water ) Array ( [key] => pool [label] => Pool ) Array ( [key] => refrigerator [label] => Refrigerator ) Array ( [key] => secured_entry [label] => Secured Entry ) Array ( [key] => security_system [label] => Security System ) Array ( [key] => stove [label] => Stove ) Array ( [key] => tennis_court [label] => Tennis Court ) Array ( [key] => underground_parking [label] => Underground Parking ) Array ( [key] => walk_in_closets [label] => Walk In Closets ) Array ( [key] => washer_and_dryer [label] => Washer and Dryer ) Array ( [key] => yard [label] => Yard ) 

 

Is there a way to return a single array like:

 

array(air_conditioning => Air Conditioning, balcony => Balcony, cable => Cable, etc...)

 

Thanks.

you would do it like this

 

while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {

     echo "the key is: ".$row['key']."<br />"; echo "the label is: ".$row['label']."<br />";
}

I think I acutally gotta do this:

 

$labels = array();
while($row = DatabaseConnection::singleton()->fetch_assoc($result)) {
   $labels[$row['key']] = $row['label'];
}

 

Seems kind of silly I gotta loop through and create a seperate array for this? Is there a better way?

are you looking for 1 specific record? then you have to do a mysql_query and return just the row your interested in
