I am a programming novice and just created my first php application. However I have a situation I don't know the answer to. My db queries (mysql) are written like this: $qtrans= "select * from $table where (conditionals) order by some field"; $link=mysql_connect ($host, $user, $password); $result=mysql_db_query($dbname, $qtrans, $link); while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { do stuff with the array here } I would like to created an if statement that only occurs if the query gets a result. If there are no records that meet the query conditionals and my array ends up with null, I do not want my if statement to take place. Is this easy enough to do? Any help would be great.
