[SOLVED] Won't Show First Result - Resource id #13

[GreenUser]

When the poster has no votes, it will show the appropriate message.  If they have one vote, the result will not show.  If they have multiple votes, they will all show but the first vote will not.  In it's place will be resource id #13, any guesses?

 

Cheers

 

<?php

require("db.php");
require("header.php");

$sql = "SELECT * FROM stories WHERE user_id = " . $_SESSION['SESS_USERID'] . ";";
$result = mysql_query($sql) OR die(mysql_error());
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
echo "$result";

if($row == 0) {
	echo "<h1>No Votes</h1>";
	echo "You have not posted any votes.";
}
else
{
	while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {

		echo "<strong><a href='viewstory.php?id=".$row['id']."'>
			<p>You voted ".$row['nagel']."</p></p></a></strong>";

$avgsql = "SELECT COUNT(id) AS number, AVG(rating) AS avg FROM ratings WHERE story_id = ".$row['id'].";";
$avgresult = mysql_query($avgsql) OR die(mysql_error());
$avgrow = mysql_fetch_assoc($avgresult);

echo "<p>";
echo "<strong>Users Rating</strong>: ";

if($avgrow['number'] == 0) {
echo "No Ratings!";
	}

else {
$a = (round($avgrow['avg'] * 2) / 2) . "<br>";
$a *= 10;

if($a%5 == 0 && $a%10 != null) {
	$range = ($a / 10) - 0.5;
}
else {
	$range = $a / 10;

$a = $a / 10;

Try replacing

 

$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);

 

with

 

$row = mysql_num_rows($result);
