Hi All Recently I'm came across following code snippet regarding exceptions there I'm executing invalid query and catch the exception as follows. First Approach ------------------------------------------- try{ $result = mysql_query('SELECT * from unknowntable'); }catch(exception $e){ echo $e->getTrace(); } -------------------------------------------

Since mysql_query doesn't throw an exception, you cannot catch it. mysql_query returns false if an error occurs, otherwise it returns a result resource. http://www.php.net/mysql_query -- Postgresql & php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/
