Note Submitter: brunis at gmail dot com ---- I ran into a problem with this piece of code.. if ( $user->query($sql) ) { $post = true; } else { $post = false; } I was assuming mysql_query returned TRUE only if it affected a row.. but it seems to return TRUE, as long as the SQL is valid.. so my code always returned true.. i fixed it with: $result = $user->query($sql); $am = mysql_affected_rows(); if ( $am == 1 ) { $post = true; } else { $post = false; } checking the affected rows instead.. hope this helps someone else..
