$client_result=mysql_query($query);
// now check for errors
mysql_error() & mysql_errno()

How do I test if an UPDATE query worked

$client_result=mysql_query($query);

From the manual page:
"For other type of SQL statements, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, DROP, etc,
*mysql_query()* returns *TRUE* on success or *FALSE* on error. "
If $client_result == true you know the query was successful.
