What's wrong with my query ?

[Rommeo]

I have 'pages' table;

 

id | mypageid |content | etc..

1 | contact | e mail me | ...

 

my query is :

		
<?php
$query = "SELECT * FROM pages WHERE mypageid = '$mypageid'";
$result = mysql_query($query) || die(mysql_error());
$total = mysql_num_rows($result);
?>

I m always getting this error message :

 

Warning: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in

 

What's wrong with my query ?

See if using this line instead of yours changes anything.

 

$result = mysql_query($query) or die( "<br>Query string: $query<br>Produced error: " . mysql_error() );
