<para>
<function>msql_fetch_array</function> is an extended version of
<function>msql_fetch_row</function>. In addition to storing the
data in the numeric indices of the result array, it also stores
the data in associative indices, using the field names as keys.
</para>
<para>
An important thing to note is that using
<function>msql_fetch_array</function> is NOT significantly slower
than using <function>msql_fetch_row</function>, while it provides
a significant added value.
