Re: Informix - ifx_num_rows

This function does not work reliably with most databases, not just Informix. Caused me a lot of problems as I have a number of pages where I'd like to display a "No records found message". Just have to do it the hard way. I think there's a disclaimer in the docs about this being unreliable.
