My bad...it would not return false. It's been a long long day.

But it would return false if the table jobsc did not exist or the database ue did not exist.

Your query is not returning any rows, and as such mysql_query returns false. False of course is not a valid mysql result and thus the "Warning".

If you are 100% certain the query returns results then that would be a problem, otherwise this is not a bug.

Please check this query from the mysql command line and reopen if there really is a problem.

Here is the code I am using that produces the error:

<?php
    $db = mysql_connect("localhost");
    mysql_select_db("ue", $db);
    $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM jobsc");
    $rows = mysql_num_rows($result);
?>

on the last line is where the error is generated. In
any browser, I see:

Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result
resource ...

My setup contains apache 1.3.19 with the static PHP 4.0.4pl1
module compiled in. My configure lines for PHP are:

./configure --with-apache=/home/apache_1.3.19
--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql

/usr/local/mysql is the install directory for mysql

That is all the information I believe I have, and I'm
relatively sure that PHP is not crashing, per say.
