Why not just use an if instead of a while? This way you test for a result
and get it at the same time
If ($array = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{ foreach($array as $key=?$value) echo("$key=?$value<br>");
} else echo("sorry didn't get anything");

No, it's not. Since you know that you'll either get 0 or 1 row, you
don't need the while loop. Instead I'd call mysql_num_rows to see
if
there was 1 row.
