hello,
 I am trying to authenticate users. I run this MySQL query using
vars provided via a form....

select password from dealers where username = '$user'

this works great if $user is actually a user in the database.
otherwise i get this error....

Warning: mysql_result(): Unable to jump to row 0 on MySQL result index 3
in /var/www/php/AuthTool.php on line 52

its because of this....

$thePass = mysql_result($result,'0','password');

is there a way to stop this error, should i be using mysql_fetch_array
instead? Code below.

Thanks,
jd



function auth(){
 $user = $_POST['user'];
 $pass = $_POST['pass'];
 $query = "select password from dealers where username = '$user'";
 $result = $this->sqlQuery($query);
 if(!$result){
  echo "Sorry there was a error\n";
 }
 else{
  $thePass = mysql_result($result,'0','password');
  if($thePass){
   echo "$thePass\n";
  }
  else{
   echo "no such user - $user\n";
  }
 }
}
