this should be easy... how would one go about determining the number of rows in a mysql table, without actually wasting the time of querying for *.
is this the best way?
$result = mysql_query('SELECT * FROM tablename');
$num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result);
does this actually take up time searching?
thanks.
