Get number of rows in SQL-Server with PHP

Question

I am fairly new to SQL-Server and PHP, but I\'m trying to get the total number of rows in my table with PHP.

This is the code I am using, it connects just fine, however

Answer 1

I believe that your call to

print_r(sqlsrv_fetch_object($stmt));

might be wrong. At least looking at the documentation in regards to how the call is made, indicates that there might be an error there.

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.sqlsrv-fetch-object.php

You might want to try using fetch instead of fetch-object. I would suggest following the example.

Answer 2

Check it:

http://www.php.net/manual/es/function.sqlsrv-num-rows.php

"sqlsrv_num_rows() — Retrieves the number of rows in a result set"

Like:

$row_count = sqlsrv_num_rows( $stmt);
echo 'numRows: ',$row_count;
