<para>
<function>pg_field_prtlen</function> returns the actual printed
length (number of characters) of a specific value in a PostgreSQL
<parameter>result</parameter>. Row numbering starts at 0. This
function will return -1 on an error.

<para>
<parameter>field_name_or_number</parameter> can be passed either as an
<type>integer</type> or as a <type>string</type>. If it is passed as an
<type>integer</type>, PHP recognises it as the field number, otherwise as
field name.
