Hello everyone-- I've got a easy question that I can't seem to answer for myself. I'm running a query in MySQL and want to know how many entries are in a table and then echo that out onto a page. I thought this would be easy but I don't know why it's not working. Anyway, here's what I am doing: (open db connection) $query = "SELECT count(*) FROM Movie"; $result = mysql_query($sql, $dbLink); $myrow = mysql_result($result); echo $myrow;$myrow = mysql_result($result,0,"count(*)"); -- +------------------------------------------------+ | Julie Meloni (julie@i2ii.com) | | Tech.
