I would like to see a mysql function that returns the field names of a query as an array of names. If this is good I elect mysql_fetch_fields() as the function name (with the added 's' on the end).

ex

$result = mysql_query("select * from table");

$fields = mysql_fetch_fields($result);

echo implode(",\n", $fields);
/* This would print out all the field names like so

field1,
field2,
field3,

This is just a conceptual example as I see better uses for this function
*/
