Description:
------------
When I try to open a .dbf file, the rows that are returned are filled with 0, and somtimes some a row with random crap.

The .dbf file has 255 colums an 10.000 rows . I've tried to open a much smaller file, that's made by the same program, ands that's working out fine.

The .dbf file is 25mb, so if you e-mail me I can give you the URL of it, so that you can use it to test.


Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
$db = dbase_open ("TREND.dbf", "r");

if ($db) {
  // count the number of rows
  $record_numbers = dbase_numrecords($db);
  echo $record_numbers."<br><br><pre>";

  $record_numbers = 250;
  for ($i=0; $i<$record_numbers;$i++) {
        $row = dbase_get_record ($db, $i);
        var_dump($row);
  }

}

// close it
dbase_close($db);

?>

Expected result:
----------------

What fields (and what formats are they in) are there in that dbase file?

[2005-08-18 12:52 UTC] sniper@php.net

And shouldn't you be using dbase_get_record_with_names() to be able to get your expected result? (associative array)

[2005-08-18 13:10 UTC] michel at i-real dot nl

The fields, are one N (11) and then 254 F's (lenght 11.5)

The associative array is not needed, the associative part of the expected result is only there because of the way it's created, some code that does 'decode' the dbf entrily in php code (http://server.bo-bo.si/index.php?call=2.1)

[2005-08-18 13:21 UTC] sniper@php.net

Simple enough: PHP dbase extension does not support 'F' fields.
