Hi Terion,
you're mixing normal mysql_* with mysqli. Mysqli is object oriented
and the mormalö mysql_ functions aren't - thei're procedural.
So you can do it either like
$result = mysql_query("SELECT 1");
$num = mysql_num_rows($result);
Or in OOP
$res = $mysqlObj->query("SELECT 1"); // $mysqlObj should be
initialized first ;) hint: new mysqli()
$num = $res->num_rows();
Check ot this URL: http://php.net/mysqli
