As long as your query is returning 0 rows that code should work ok, but it is incorrect for correctness, if ($vthere == '0') should be if ($vthere == 0) As $vthere will contain an integer, not a string, but as you are using the == comparison operator instead of === PHP should convert them both to the same type before comparing. Can we see the snippet of the actual code that you are using?
