# mysql_db_name

(PHP 3>= 3.0.6, PHP 4 )

mysql_db_name -- Get result data

## Description

string mysql_db_name ( resource result, int row [, mixed field])

mysql_db_name() takes as its first parameter the result pointer from a call to mysql_list_dbs(). The `row` parameter is an index into the result set.

If an error occurs, `FALSE` is returned. Use mysql_errno() and mysql_error() to determine the nature of the error.

Example 1. mysql_db_name() example

    <?php
        error_reporting(E_ALL);

        mysql_connect('dbhost', 'username', 'password');
        $db_list = mysql_list_dbs();

        $i = 0;
        $cnt = mysql_num_rows($db_list);
        while ($i < $cnt) {
            echo mysql_db_name($db_list, $i) . "\n";
            $i++;
        }
    ?>

For backward compatibility, mysql_dbname() is also accepted. This is deprecated, however.
