Would someone be kind enough to explain why I'm not getting the correct result from the following query. If I select a valid member no. and name, the following query should return 1 row. This is not the case, however. It returns zero rows.
$sql = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE member_no = '$member_no' and name = ' $name' "; $result = mysql_query($sql) or die ("Cannot verify the member"); $rows = mysql_num_rows($result); echo "rows = $rows<br>"; Furthermore when trying the following query where the table "users" contains 13 rows, the query returns only 12 rows. $sql = "SELECT * FROM users"; $result = mysql_query($sql) or die ("Cannot verify the member"); $rows = mysql_num_rows($result); echo "rows = $rows<br>"; Conclusion: mysql_num_rows seems to be returning one less row than exists. Is this correct? Thanks in advance Roger Lewis -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
