Hello, I really do appreciate your help. But, I found out that the solution scrip that you gave me was wrong script for my purpose. I guess I didn't describe my problem right. I didn't mean to get the total number of rows to compare. Let's say I have a table name inventory and contains two columes. Here is example, item inventory 15109 0 15110 12 14590 7 This is a script that I tried and didn't work. $itemx = "15109"; $num = mysql_query("SELECT quantity FROM inventory WHERE item = '$itemx'",$link); if ($num < 1) { echo "<b><font color=\"#FF0000\">Out of Stock $result</font></b>"; } else { echo "<b><font color=\"#0000FF\">In Stock $result</font></b>"; } I want my inventory quantity with known item number to compare with ($num<1), but didn't work. Can you tell me how about solving this problem? Thanks for your time again. Tony
