hi..
posted a message about what the code was to test an update query to see if
it was successfull using mysql and i tested my code and for some reason even
if none of the fields were updated it still reports the success message...
heres the code i have:
$query=mysql_query("update members set company="\$company\", ........);
if($query){
message if successfull...
}
else{
message if not or if failed..//never gets used
}
anybody know why this doesnt work if 0 records were changed?
