[code]$total_results = mysql_result(mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(*) as Num FROM forum_topics WHERE forumid = '" . $fid . "' AND pinned = '0' ORDER BY id ASC"),0) or die(red_message("An error has occurred") . "<br \>" . red_message(mysql_error() ? mysql_error() : "No MySQL error to show") . "<br \>ID: 1");[/code]
You can ignore everything after "or".

It doesn't give me an error message from mysql_error(). Also there's 1 row in the table "forum_topics" where [b]pinned[/b] is "1". If I set [b]pinned[/b] to "0" it works fine.

So what I want to know is why doesn't it work when I have one topic in the forum where [b]pinned[/b] is "1"? I know I have [b]WHERE pinned = '0'[/b] in the query itself, but I just don't understand it.

If someone could provide a solution I'd greatly appreciate it!

Thanks in advance.

Edit: I've found a solution for it by checking if there's any rows first, then if so, do mysql_result:
[code]            $query = "SELECT * FROM forum_topics WHERE forumid = '" . $fid . "' AND pinned = '0'";
            $result = mysql_query($query) or die(red_message(mysql_error()));

            if(mysql_num_rows($result) > 0)
            {
                // BUILD LINKS
                $total_results = mysql_result(mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(*) as Num FROM forum_topics WHERE forumid = '" . $fid . "' AND pinned = '0' ORDER BY id ASC"),0) or die(red_message("An error has occurred") . "<br \>" . red_message(mysql_error() ? mysql_error() : "No MySQL error to show") . "<br \>ID: 1");
                $total_pages = ceil($total_results / $max_results); [/code]
Is there another way though?

First why do you have Arithmetic parameters in "" quote? As an integer, the 0 value is mathematically operable. Putting it in quote simply vabous it and will not carry out any incre/decrement on it.
