(PHP 3, PHP 4 >= 4.0.0)
mysql_data_seek -- Move internal result pointer
Description
bool 
mysql_data_seek ( resource result_identifier, int row_number)
     Returns TRUE on success, FALSE on failure.
    
     mysql_data_seek() moves the internal row
     pointer of the MySQL result associated with the specified result
     identifier to point to the specified row number.  The next call
     to mysql_fetch_row() would return that row.
    
     Row_number starts at 0.
    
| Example 1. MySQL data seek example | <?php
    $link = mysql_pconnect("kron", "jutta", "geheim")
        or die("Could not connect");
    mysql_select_db("samp_db")
        or exit("Could not select database");
    $query = "SELECT last_name, first_name FROM friends";
    $result = mysql_query($query)
        or die("Query failed");
    // fetch rows in reverse order
    for ($i = mysql_num_rows($result) - 1; $i >=0; $i--) {
        if (!mysql_data_seek($result, $i)) {
            echo "Cannot seek to row $i\n";
            continue;
        }
        if(!($row = mysql_fetch_object($result)))
            continue;
        echo "$row->last_name $row->first_name<br />\n";
    }
    mysql_free_result($result);
