dbGet()
can be used to retrieve data from the content database. For details and examples, see Using data fragments in PHP code and dbSet()
.
array|false dbGet(string key)
Important: dbGet()
can only retrieve data that has been imported as a table or entered into the content database using dbSet()
. The command cannot retrieve complex data structures that have been stored using dbStore()
. Use dbRetrieve()
for that.
If the specified key exists in the database, the function always returns an Array – even if only one value was stored for the key.
If the specified key is not found in the database, the function returns false
. In debug mode (), but not in the finished questionnaire, a warning is also displayed if the key was not found.
