Are you actually checking that the query result is valid?

$conn = mysql_connect('localhost', "xxx", "yyy") or die('Could not connect
to db');
$result = mysql_query('select * from blah', $conn);
if ($result)
{
  echo "Number of rows: " . mysql_num_rows($result);
  if (mysql_num_rows($result) > 0)
  {
    while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($result))
    {
      for ($i = 0; $i < sizeOf($row); $i++)
      {
        echo "$i: " . $row[$i] . "<BR>";
      }
    }
  }
}
else
{
  echo mysql_error($conn);
}
