mysql_num_rows()
my_ulonglong mysql_num_rows(MYSQL_RES
*result)
Description
Returns the number of rows in the result set.
The use of mysql_num_rows()
depends on whether you use
mysql_store_result() or
mysql_use_result() to return
the result set. If you use
mysql_store_result(),
mysql_num_rows() may be called
immediately. If you use
mysql_use_result(),
mysql_num_rows() does not
return the correct value until all the rows in the result set
have been retrieved.
mysql_num_rows() is intended
for use with statements that return a result set, such as
SELECT. For statements such as
INSERT, UPDATE, or
DELETE, the number of affected rows can be
obtained with
mysql_affected_rows().
Return Values
The number of rows in the result set.
Errors
None.
