Both return a row in a MySQL database and in most applications can be used interchangeably. The difference is that mysql_fetch_array has an extra argument called $result_type that allows the returned array to be associative (string keys) or numeric (the keys are 0..n). A mysql_fetch_array call with the numeric parameter is equivalent to mysql_fetch_row.
