yeah that kinda works...

what i have is

$result = mysql($database "select x, y, z from $table where a and b and 
c;", $link);
if ($result == empty set){
        $z = NULL;
}
else
        $x = mysql_result($result, 0, "x");
        $y= mysql_result($result, 0, "y");
        $z = mysql_result($result, 0, "z");
}

i have 1 row in my table. this row contains legit values for a, b, and c 
so
when i set $result to NULL or 0 or whatever it goes into the ELSE 
statement
but when select returns "Empty Set (0.02 sec)" it gives me this:

Warning: Unable to jump to row 0 on MySQL result index# in 
Location-of-file.php
