Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
[url]http://www.php.net/manual/[/url] and the instructions on how to report
a bug at [url]http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php[/url]

Pgsql always lower cases field names, which is why $row->FeedID returns
NULL. You should use $row->feedid instead.

Oh, and of course, you need to comment out either the ARRAY code or the
OBJECT code when you test this. :) Try each in turn.

You will want this SQL :

$sql = "SELECT FeedID, uri

FROM feeds ";

Description:
------------
I checked on PHP 5.0beta too and the same problem there.
pg_fetch_object returns serial or integers as NULL while but returns
varchars in the same record as string - pg_fetch_array returns the
entire data correctly. Similar code worked fine on another server
using MySQl Support.

You need a table like this:
CREATE TABLE public.feeds
(
feedid serial NOT NULL,
uri varchar(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
category int4 NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,

CONSTRAINT feeds_pkey PRIMARY KEY (feedid),
CONSTRAINT feeds_uri_key UNIQUE (uri)
) WITH OIDS;



Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$pgConnectStr = "... your connect string";
$link = pg_connect( $pgConnectStr ) or die( "Could not connect" );

$stat = pg_connection_status($link);
if($stat == PGSQL_CONNECTION_OK ) {
echo "connection_status: OK<br />";
} else {
// report connection error

echo "connection_status: BAD<br />";
echo( pg_last_error($link) );
}

$feedb = pg_query( $link, $sql);
echo( "<br />".pg_num_rows( $feedb )." Number of rows returned.<br />"
);
// for each row in the table stuff the coresponding variables with the
data:


echo ( "ARRAY<br />" );

while( $fields = pg_fetch_array( $feedb ) ){

echo ( "<br />Feed[0]: $fields[0]<br />" );

echo ( "<br />Feed[1]: {$fields[1]}<br />" );

echo ( "<br />Feed[2]: {$fields[2]}<br />" );

}



echo ( "OBJECT<br />" );

while( $row = pg_fetch_object( $feedb ) ){

if( $row->FeedID == NULL) {
$id = "NULL";
} else {
$id = $row->FeedID;
}
echo ( "<br />FeedID:".$id."<br />" );

$uri = $row->uri;
echo ( "<br />uri: $uri<br />" );

if( $row->category == NULL) {
$c = "NULL";
} else {
$c = $row->category;
}
echo ( "<br />category: $c<br />" );

}
?>

Expected result:
----------------
We expect the serial and integer values to appear in the result from
pg_fetch_object

Actual result:
--------------
You will note that the output produces NULLs instead.
