Then do a SHOW DATABASES query before that and loop through the results,
counting the rows in each table. 

If you have to do this, though, I think you have some normalization
issues with your database...

Re: [PHP] return the amount of records in a mysql databace

2002-09-22 Thread Chris Shiflett

Look through the MySQL functions. I seem to recall that there is a 
function for just about anything, and all you really want to do is find 
how many rows are in all the tables in a particular database. Thus, a 
couple of loops is all you need, with the outer one looping through each 
table (obtained from a function) and the inner one doing a select 
count(*) or a mysql_num_rows().

Happy hacking.

Chris

this is only going to return records in a table, and not in a database
