Hello I'm new:
I need to know how can I stop a php sentence if my db is empty, for example
I have writed a php sentence, if every fields from mmy db are full, there
is no problem, but I delete every values from the all fields in my db when
I ejecute my script mysql give me an error, Ej:

$fecha = mysql_query("SELECT event_day, event_month, event_year FROM
$db_table WHERE event_title = $dia_maximo");
$fecha_max = mysql_fetch_array($fecha);
$fecha_maxima = $fecha_max['event_day'];
$diames_maximo = $fecha_max['event_month'];

wehen I ejecute the script the error message is it:

Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL
result resource in /home/www/cfg/prueba/calendar_este2/index.php on line
277



$fecha = mysql_query("SELECT event_day, event_month, event_year FROM $db_table WHERE event_title = $dia_maximo");
if($fecha) {
    $fecha_max = mysql_fetch_array($fecha);

    $fecha_maxima = $fecha_max['event_day'];
    $diames_maximo = $fecha_max['event_month'];
} else {
    // No row returned...
}

This is very wrong. If $fecha is false, then it means that the query didn't execute properly, not that there were no rows returned.

You should do this instead:

$query  = "SELECT event_day, event_month, event_year FROM $db_table ";
$query .= "WHERE event_title = '".$dia_maximo;

$fecha = mysql_query($query);
if (!is_resource($fecha))
{
   die($query."<br />".mysql_error());
}

// -- continue with the rest

Also, make sure you have a valid connection to the database, mysql_error() will help you with sorting out what is the problem.
