note 19560 added to function.mysql-num-rows

I have found that using the following OCCASSIONALLY produced an error specifying that something was not a valid MySQL resource. $sql = "Select sid from table1; $result = @mysql_query($sql); $num = mysql_num_rows($result); All I really wanted was a count of rows. I added this above that code and the problem was solved. mysql_select_db("dbname"); I had the db selection elsewhere in my code so I guess that's why I occassionally experienced the problem. I hope this helps clear things up for someone. -PVT -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-num-rows.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+19560 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+19560 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+19560
