Hey.
I'd like to thank everyone who helped me. I was able to fix the code by
printing the query to c wat was wrong, and also, pg_cmdtuples( ) was very
useful :-).
Does anybody know how to find out what version of PHP i may be running?
Thanx Again

Hi Yasmine
As someone else has already noted, you must be running an early version of
PHP which doesn't have the pg_affected_rows function.
The older equivalent function is pg_cmdtuples() so you should change your
code to use the older function
ie:
$result=pg_exec($database, "update gpinfo set password='$newpw' where
gpid='$gpidno'");
if (!$result) {
print "There was a problem accessing the database
[".pg_errormessage($database)."]\n";
exit;
}
if(pg_cmdtuples($result) !=1 ) {
print "Update Failed: (".pg_cmdtuples($result)." rows were affected)\n";
exit;
}
print "Update Successful\n<br>";
Regards
Peter
