Is there another way to determine what the query found? The input is a string "whatever". I'm looking for a return of a string or null or nuber of rows or something that will permit to to channel the execution of the file. The snippet below is good for (there is a match) and (there is no match) but I get the feeling that there must be a quicker way to determine if the $result is positive or negative. ??? :-\
while ( $row = mysql_fetch_array($result) ) { echo("<P>" . $row["title"] . "</P>"); } if ($row["title"] == "") echo ("Empty!") -- Phil Jourdan --- p...@ptahhotep.com http://www.ptahhotep.com http://www.chiccantine.com -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql?unsub=arch...@jab.org
