All the database-specific stuff is in simpleQuery(), query() is merely a wrapper returning a DB_result object. > Wouldn't it be better to give a descriptive error message when numrows() > is called for a handle which is not valid or not full with some data? > Stig? PEAR has an error system that is pretty configurable and that is not "noisy" by default (printing errors) like PHP is. You can configure it to, though. Try this: $dbh = DB::connect($dsn); $dbh->setErrorHandling(PEAR_ERROR_DIE); If you only want to print the error message, use PEAR_ERROR_PRINT instead, or PEAR_ERROR_TRIGGER if you want to use PHP's internal errors. - Stig -- Stig Sæther Bakken <ssb@fast.no> Fast Search & Transfer ASA, Trondheim, Norway
