   (PHP 3>= 3.0.8, PHP 4 )
   dba_fetch -- Fetch data specified by key

Description

   string dba_fetch ( string key, resource handle)
   string dba_fetch ( string key, int skip, resource handle)

   dba_fetch() fetches the data specified by key from the database
   specified with handle.

   Key is the key the data is specified by.

   Skip is the number of key-value pairs to ignore when using cdb
   databases. This value is ignored for all other databases which do not
   support multiple keys with the same name.

   Handle is a database handle returned by dba_open().

   dba_fetch() returns the associated string or FALSE, if the key/data
   pair is found or not found, respectively.

   See also: dba_exists(), dba_delete(), dba_insert(), dba_replace() and
   dba_key_split().

     Note: The skip parameter is available since PHP 4.3 to support
     cdb's capability of multiple keys having the same name.

     Note: When working with inifiles this function accepts arrays as
     keys where index 0 is the group and index 1 is the value name. See:
     dba_key_split().
