Subject: [PHP-DB] How to find out the number of rows in a table?

Try the following:
$sql = select count(*) as c from your_table ;
$result = mysql_query(your_db, $sql, your_connection_identifier) ;
$row_count = mysql_result($result, 0, 'c') ;
Now $row_count contains the number of rows in your table named your_table
