Strange bahavior with mysql_fetch_array($result)

["Evan Panagiotopoulos" <epanagio@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am searching a table and have the following php code with my
comments:

$result = mysql_query($query);
print "The result == $result"; 
// it returns The result == Resource id #2"
if (!mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
 ...
} else {
  while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
      ...
   }
}
Neither the if nor the while get executed. 
Can you make any suggestions? Obviously I'm new to this.

Evan
