# list

(unknown)

list -- Assign variables as if they were an array

``void list` (...)`

Like array(), this is not really a function, but a language construct. list() is used to assign a list of variables in one operation.

Example 1. list() example
    <table>
     <tr>
      <th>Employee name</th>
      <th>Salary</th>
     </tr>

    <?php

    $result = mysql_query ("SELECT id, name, salary FROM employees",$conn);
    while (list ($id, $name, $salary) = mysql_fetch_row ($result)) {
        print (" <tr>\n".
               "  <td><a href=\"info.php3?id=$id\">$name</a></td>\n".
               "  <td>$salary</td>\n".
               " </tr>\n");
    }

    ?>

    </table>
