So my code
 

<? $reqcount = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM friend_reqs WHERE user_to={$_SESSION['user']['user_id']} AND user_from!={$_SESSION['user']['user_id']}"); $reqs = sizeof($reqcount);?>

 

 

 

 

 

I have 3 requests for the user and it only shows 1. What is the problem?

mysql_query returns a resource, NOT the query results. You need to fetch the data.

 

Other comments:

1) The mysql library is deprecated, use mysqli (mysqli)

2) Don't use short tags "<?", use full tags: "<?php"

3) Use SELECT COUNT(*) if you want a count, don't return all of the data if you don't need it
