There added in the $query variable. Also cleaned up the code using a WP highlight plugin. Hopefully it reads better now. Thanks!

AT sumit –

In most compilations of PHP it will work. If mysql_num_rows does not have a mysql result set specified, it defaults to the last query made.

Although, I do make it a standard practice to always include the reference variable for the sake of clarity.

good basic tutorial but there is little error on line 4.instead of :
$TOTALROWS = mysql_num_rows();

IT should be:

$TOTALROWS=mysql_num_rows($query);

The code needs to count the number of rows retrieved with the query…

a little type i guess…
