I have the following problem: This one does not work: $query = "SELECT * from user where name='$userid' and pass=password('$password')"; $result = mysql_query($query, $link); $num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result); I get this error message: Warning: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in c:\wamp\www\fs1812_new\authmain.php on line 18 This one works OK: $query = "SELECT * FROM user"; $result = mysql_query($query, $link); $num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result); What is wrong and how can I use mysql_num_rows when the query include "WHERE" A fast response will be very much appreciated.
