I am trying to get a record count from a MySql database using the following:

$reccount = @mysql_query("select count(*) from mytable where user =
'testuser');

I try this from mysql and get the correct response ( 1 ).

However, when I put this in an php script, $reccount returns a value of
'Resource id #5'.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.
