Re: mysql if empty

An empty result is still a valid result. As long as the SQL statement is valid, you will get a result set. This doesn't meant that the variable holding the reference to the result set is itself empty, but that you will fail to fetch any results from it.

If I search for something in mysql that returns an empty result I cant get it to return "No result found" always returns "Found" even though the recoed does not exist... $sql = "SELECT Client FROM booked WHERE Name = 'larry'"; $result = mysql_query($sql); if ($result == "") { echo "No result found"; } echo "Found"; ----- Original Message ----- From: "Martin Marques" <martin@bugs.unl.edu.ar> To: "Stut" <stuttle@gmail.com> Cc: "Tijnema !" <tijnema@gmail.com>; "tedd" <tedd@sperling.com>; "Peter Lauri" <lists@dwsasia.com>; "Ólafur Waage" <sinai@simnet.is>; <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Monday, April 09, 2007 9:45 PM Subject: Re: [PHP] Session Authentication

As with most things these days it probably breaches the DMCA. But frankly speaking, if doing that works then the developers of the application, and by extension the company, deserve everything they get.

DMCA is a real piece of crap. -- select 'mmarques' || '@' || 'unl.edu.ar' AS email; ---------------------------------------------------------
