When checking for failures, I have found that you can not check the results of the funtion with an if statement as follows: if(!(mysql_affected_rows($link))){ print error } This function returns a -1 on failure not a false. Apparently -1 to php is not false. To get this to work simply redo the if statement like this: if((mysql_affected_rows($link)) = -1){ print error }
