Hi all,
I am connecting to mySQL with PHP. I am executing, against an empty
table, a delete statement like this: mysql_query($sql,$this->getCon())
and checking the return value, which == '1'. I can't find much
documentation on the return value of mysql_query(). It seems to return
something called a resource, but since when I say:
if(!$returnValue)
{
die('Could not delete data: ' . mysql_error());
}
else
{
echo $returnValue . " record deleted successfully<br
/><br />";
}
It always goes to the else branch -> I am guessing that it can't be
deleting something that's not there, but I can't figure out what
$returnValue is telling me then with a return value of '1', which is
generally equivalent to 'true'.
Can you clarify these crossed signals I am getting? Thanks, Scott
