I'm trying to get function exists($name) { $sql = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE (name='$name')"; $res = $db->query($sql); if (DB::isError($res)) { die ($res->getMessage()); } if($res) { $Rows = $res->numRows(); if($Rows > 0) { return(TRUE); } else { return(FALSE); } } To return something useful (below if($Rows > 0)). It doesn't. I have require_once("DB.php"); $dsn="mysql://$cfg_dbuser:$cfg_dbpasswd@$cfg_dbhost/$cfg_dbname"; in the code and this apparently works. Now: $res = $db->query($sql); doesn't seem to do anything. After some time :-/ researching this I found that query isn't in DB.php but DB/common.php. So do I include that file somewhere? If I try I get: Fatal error: Class db_common: Cannot inherit from undefined class pear in /usr/local/lib/php4/pear/DB/common.php on line 30 Martin
