I am switching to PDO and can't find an equivalent to mysql_num_rows.
Am I missing something silly?

Or is there a change of thinking needed for PDO?

How should I determine how many rows a query returned?


PDO returns an array, sizeof/count will get you home


I would like to know how many rows I am working with before starting to
fetch.

Also fetchall, does not seem to have a style that returns each column value
just once. I see this ugly thing in the manual:

Fetch all of the remaining rows in the result set:
Array
(
  [0] => Array
      (
          [NAME] => pear
          [0] => pear
          [COLOUR] => green
          [1] => green
      )

  [1] => Array
      (
          [NAME] => watermelon
          [0] => watermelon
          [COLOUR] => pink
          [1] => pink
      )

)

If I could get the column offsets only, without the column names I would be
very happy.

This is only good for updates, inserts and deletes.<br>

I am just doing a select.
