mysql_query() might fail, in which case it returns a boolean FALSE.
You should first check whether the query succeeded or failed.

        $result = mysql_query($query);
        if ($result === false)
        {
                // query failed, report the error
                echo mysql_error();
        }
        else
        {
                // query succeeded, do your thing
        }
