Hi With MySql that means that there is no result returned. Usually SQL error, but could be a setup problem if you have not run any queries succesfuly.
Not sure if the same applies to MSql, but try echoing the error, echo msql_error($conn) (if it is the same as MySql) HTH Peter ----------------------------------------------- Excellence in internet and open source software ----------------------------------------------- Sunmaia www.sunmaia.net [EMAIL PROTECTED] tel. 0121-242-1473 ----------------------------------------------- > -----Original Message----- > From: comp boy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: 26 June 2002 20:09 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [PHP-DB] PHP and msql Error > > > I am getting the following error: > > Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid mSQL result resource in > /usr/local/apache/htdocs/inc/listings.inc on line 24 > > listings.inc: 24 > $numRows = msql_numrows( $result ); > > The manual on php.net says that it takes no variables msql_numrows(void) > however it says it is another version of msql_num_rows(int msql); > > The code I am trying to run, runs perfectly fine on another one of our > systems.
