Re: [PHP] Using List() and a do-while loop with MySQL results.

[Chris]

Excerpt from http://www.php.net/list
"*Note: * *list()* only works on numerical arrays and assumes the 
numerical indices start at 0."

So the best way , in my opinion, to achieve this effect would be:
while(list($id, $someinfo) = mysql_fetch_row($result))
{
        //    Some stuff
}

Greetings all,
I am pulling records from a MySQL DB.
I am walking through the array using the whole.
if (  $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
   do    {
       //    Some stuff
  }    while (  $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result));
}
What I am wondering is if there is something I can do like.
if (  list ($id, $someinfo) = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
   do    {
       //    Some stuff
  }    while (   list ($id, $someinfo) = mysql_fetch_assoc($result));
}
When I tried something like that
The variables where not populated.
Is there something I am doing wrong, or is this just something that cannot
be done (or is bad programming practice??)
Thanks.
