When I did a search on "resource(5)" within the PHP online documentation, I found the
resource page resource.php. While although it lists all the resources used with mysql, it does not
mention how resources are related to resource numbers as above. A query such as a row count on a
table results in an integer value. What is the best way of accessing or converting the integer
value from the resource? I can't see any particular function in the function list which does
this, without getting into strings or arrays, or have I missed something blaringly obvious, hope
not?
