Example 1. Getting information about fields

<?php
  $dbconn
= pg_connect("dbname=publisher") or die("Could not connect");

  
$res = pg_query($dbconn, "select * from authors where author = 'Orwell'");
  
$i = pg_num_fields($res);
  for (
$j = 0; $j < $i; $j++) {
      echo
"column $j\n";
      
$fieldname = pg_field_name($res, $j);
      echo
"fieldname: $fieldname\n";
      echo
"printed length: " . pg_field_prtlen($res, $fieldname) . " characters\n";
      echo
"storage length: " . pg_field_size($res, $j) . " bytes\n";
      echo
"field type: " . pg_field_type($res, $j) . " \n\n";
  }
