It is a personal preference of mine, but I prefer to avoid switch statements when possible so I thought perhaps you would share this same bias and maybe prefer this way.

PHP Code:


			
public function fetch($fetch_type = 'array')
{
    $types = array(
                    'array' => MYSQL_NUM,
                    'assoc' => MYSQL_ASSOC,
                    'both'    => MYSQL_BOTH
                  );
     if( array_key_exists($fetch_type, $types) )
     {
         return mysql_fetch_array($this->results, $types[$fetch_type]);
     }
}
