Example 1. Object oriented style

Example 2. Procedural style
`<?php $link = maxdb_connect("localhost", "MONA", "RED", "DEMODB"); /* check connection */ if (maxdb_connect_errno()) { printf("Connect failed: %s\n", maxdb_connect_error()); exit(); } if ($result = maxdb_query($link, "SELECT * FROM hotel.city ORDER BY zip")) { /* determine number of fields in result set */ $field_cnt = maxdb_num_fields($result); printf("Result set has %d fields.\n", $field_cnt); /* close result set */ maxdb_free_result($result); } /* close connection */ maxdb_close($link); ?>`

The above examples would produce the following output:
