Thanks , I checked again, and problem was exporting scripts from Windows to
Linux. For Win, case charecrs doesn't matter, so my query was 'Selcet * from
Category '  , but real name for linux (and windows) was 'category' (first char =
lower case). This way I receive empty set when trying to apply mysql_num_rows()
on linux, although working fine on Win.

Anyway, after correcting this problem, I noticed that Mysql_Affected_Rows()
works fine for SELECT also, retrieving correct number found rows , ( even manual
indicating to be applied for UPDATE,INSERT,DELETE)  , whenever
Mysql_Num_Rows($set) returns always = 0.

I don't know the reason for this problem, but at last decided to use
Affected_Rows() instead Num_Rows($set)

Thanks very much

Miguel
