If I select rows with a limit clause I need to know if there are more rows than the limit.


Either do a SELECT COUNT(*) prior to your LIMIT query to see how many total rows there are, or use SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS and FOUND_ROWS() (more info here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Information_functions.html)

Is found_rows standard SQL? I want to easily portable code. Maybe I should use a select count first. :-)
