note 90876 added to function.mssql-query

Note that although the documentations states that mssql_query will return "TRUE if no rows were returned", it will still return an empty resource identifier for SELECT statements that do not return any rows. This empty resource identifier will get dynamically typed as TRUE in a boolean context. Only for queries that do not actually return rows (eg. insert, update, or delete) will mssql_query return an actual boolean TRUE value. We should use mssql_num_rows($resource) rather than $resource===TRUE for checking whether rows were returned. ---- Server IP: 209.41.74.194 Probable Submitter: 128.111.101.178 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mssql-query.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/90876 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90876/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90876/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90876/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90876/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90876/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90876/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90876 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/90876 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
