Conventions of Functions

If the following sections, each function appears in the object-oriented form for the class mysqli. With some exceptions, the procedural form of each function can be obtained by prepending it with mysqli_ and adding the link as the first parameter. For example:

The procedural form of
   query($s [,$i=MYSQLI_STORE_RESULT])
is
   mysqli_query($l,$s [,$i=MYSQLI_STORE_RESULT])

The procedural form of
   $error
is
   mysqli_error($l)
Unless otherwise specified, each function returns TRUE on success and FALSE on failure.
