Can anyone tell me the best way to check that a DELETE query was successful.
I have tried using mssql_num_rows() and mssql_rows_affected() but it is
always telling me that the DELETE was successful, even when it shouldn't
have been. Here is the code that I am trying to work with right now.
<?
function delete_user($dbname, $user) {
//connecting to db and getting table
mssql_select_db($dbname) or die("Table unavailable");
//deleting user from user table
$query = "DELETE FROM [users] WHERE [user] = '$user'";
$result = mssql_query($query) or die("Unable to delete user");
if(mssql_num_rows($result) > 0) echo "User successfully deleted.<br>\n";
else echo "User does not exist<br>\n";
}
?>
