need to test if sql query was successful

Question

I have this query and if it returns successful, I want another function to process, if not, do not process that function.

Here is the code for running the query

Answer 1

mysql_affected_rows

I understand that by saying "successful" you want to know if any rows have been updated. You can check it with this function.

If you use PDO -> http://www.php.net/manual/en/pdostatement.rowcount.php
