I think all mysql_fetch_array() is the best one, since we
can get the value of the records using the numeric index (as
numbers) or using the string index (as column).
mysql_fetch_array () => fetches the records using the two
way index method,
(ex). $record[0];
$record['id'];
gives the same value.
mysql_fetch_row() fetches the records using the numerical index
ex. $record[0];
mysql_fetch_assoc() fetches the records using the string
index and returs the records as associative array
ex. $record['id'];
mysql_fetch_object() fetches the records as the object.
ex. $record->id;

Answer / pratik
mysql_fetch_object() is the best method. It is not
generally affected in small result. mysql_fetch_array() has
some limit to fetch data from table. when result it too high
(more than 4000 record) at that time
mysql_fetch_object()will support.

Answer / pradeep
hi all,
i think mysql_fetch_object or mysql_fetch_array both are best method bcz both are take same time for result show.
but mysql_fetch_array() fetches the records using the numeric index (as numbers) or using the string index (as column)
mysql_fetch_object() fetches the records as the object.
ex. $record->id;

Answer / devendra modi
mysql_fetch_object() is better then mysql_fetch_array()
because mysql_fetch_array () will return numeric and
associative array if you have 1 lac record then it will
generate two array mean load two lack record. so it is
slower then mysql_fetch_object()

Answer / vinoth
My Opinion is at the developer point of view
mysql_fetch_assoc() is the Best method to fetch data but at
the same time at the user point of view we can use
mysql_fetch_object()for faster execution of the data.
