Hi, Say i have a table with a primary key column, and i try to insert a matching row with a PHP script. Is it possible to catch the errror number and report this back to the user? $query = "INSERT INTO MyTable (Col1) VALUES ('x'); $result = @mysql_query($query); if(mysql_error = //what do i put here){ echo "Please choose a unique name"; } Thanks for your help -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
