When I do the following command:
$number_of_entries=mysql_numrows($blog_activity_result);
and there are no rows I get an error (Warning: mysql_numrows(): supplied
argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in ...)
Fix the error from $blog_activity_result as someone else mentioned.
If there are no rows returned from a query, mysql_numrows will return 0
- it will only show an error if you give it a bad link identifier.
eg
$query = "select * from table_that_doesnt_exist limit 1";
$result = mysql_query($query);
$rows = mysql_numrows($result); <-- will give an error
$query = "select * from table_that_is_empty limit 1";
$result = mysql_query($query);
$rows = mysql_numrows($result); <-- will return 0
