Hello,

I have an app where one module is similar to
phpMyAdmin (well only .1%) with error_reporting() set
to E_ALL.

Now a user can execute any query. What is the best way
to know whether a query is result or non-result.

e.g.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

$result  = mysql_query ( $query, $mysql );

if ( !$result ) {
 HandleError ( mysql_errno(), mysql_error() );
 return;
}

if ( !mysql_num_rows ( $result ) && !mysql_num_fields
( $result ) )
{
// handle non_result values
return;
}

// handle result values

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 

The problem is that if its an Update stmt. php throws
up an error that $result in mysql_num_rows() is not a
valid handle.

Moreover, from the manual - mysql_affected_rows() does
not work with SELECT statements; only on statements
which modify records. So to use it I have to figure
out if its a non-SELECT statement  

What you PHP gurus suggest the best way to handle such
situations?

Thanks in advance 

Regards,
Karam
