Note Submitter: Janez Resnik, SI ---- $count_product_type_results = mysql_query( $sql_product_type_count ); Why is this line not returning the result from "SELECT COUNT(*) ..." query? My guess is that the correct line would be: $count_product_type_results = mysql_result(mysql_query( $sql_product_type_count ),0); You forgot to call mysql_fetch_array() or mysql_result() or any function that returns actual row or column and you are printing variable that is comonly named as $result which is of resource type. If you are experienced C++ programer, you could think of it as a "pointer" or "reference" to the whole resultset. You might want to try var_dump($count_product_type_results)...
