This is really more of a PHP question, than it is a MySQL question....
mysql_query returns an integer which is the identifier that you will use to
call other mysql functions which utilize the results from your query.
For example:
$row_count = mysql_num_rows($result) ;
...this will set $row_count equal to the number of rows returned by your
query identified by $result).
See www.php.net/mysql for some good information on this as well.
