Selector::field() method

Get the field(s) of this Selector

Note that if calling this as a property (rather than a method) it can return either a string or an array.

Available since version 3.0.42. Prior versions only supported the 'field' property.

Usage

// basic usage
$string = $selector->field();

// usage with all arguments
$string = $selector->field($forceString = true);

Arguments

Specify one of the following:

  • true (bool): to only return a string, where multiple-fields will be split by pipe "|". (default)
  • false (bool): to return string if 1 field, or array of multiple fields (same behavior as field property).
  • 1 (int): to return only the first value (string).
