mysql_tablename — Get table name of field
This extension was deprecated in PHP 5.5.0, and it was removed in PHP 7.0.0. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extension should be used. See also MySQL: choosing an API guide and related FAQ for more information. Alternatives to this function include:
- SQL Query: SHOW TABLES
Description
$result
, int $i
) : string
Retrieves the table name from a result
.
This function is deprecated. It is preferable to use mysql_query() to issue an SQL SHOW TABLES [FROM db_name] [LIKE 'pattern'] statement instead.

-
result
-
A result pointer resource that's returned from mysql_list_tables().
-
i
-
The integer index (row/table number)
Return Values
The name of the table on success or FALSE
on failure.
Use the mysql_tablename() function to traverse this result pointer, or any function for result tables, such as mysql_fetch_array().
