What error are you getting? Maybe there's some way to fix that too.
The error I get without checking the row count is this:
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that
corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use
near 'order by LName' at line 1
Ok so the next thing to check is your query. Maybe echo it out so
you can
see what's actually attempting to execute.
echo from my actual query
SELECT * FROM current WHERE loginName='japruim' AND
loginPassword='mybadpassword' LIMIT 0,1;
I don't see an "ORDER BY" in the SQL listed below.
The ORDER BY actually comes from a different query that should ONLY be
done AFTER successful login... It's actually related to the sorting of
the records that should be retrieved.
Usually when I get errors like this, it's because a variable I
expect to be
populated isn't and it messes up the SQL by leaving a blank where it
expects something.
SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = 'tg' ORDER BY LName
If I had:
$user = "'tg'"
with the single-quotes inside the variable.. if I typo'd on $user
and did
something like:
$query = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = $usr ORDER BY LName";
Then I'd get:
SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = ORDER BY LName
