What is the recommended way to find the number of rows found by a SELECT
query? PDOStatement::rowCount() doesn't work with MySQL and is a bit

the data could have changed and it's an extra query. What is there
that's better
ment.
mysql_num_rows() is specific to MySQL. He wants a PDO version.

Firstly, does it need to be in an array? Does your script do anything
else with $lineArray? If not, you'd be much better off just using
file_get_contents() (http://php.net/file_get_contents) or, if you just
want to output
