|
I was wondering if SMARTY provides something for a total record count of a mysql query.
My query in the PHP is
$sql = "SELECT * FROM user_rating WHERE item_id = '".$_GET['item_id']."'";
$handle = $db->sql_query($sql);
$rating_info = $db->sql_fetchrowset($handle);
$smarty->assign('rating_info', $rating_info);
In the HTML template, is there something I can use to get the total records?
thanks1 |

| You can assign the record count from MYSQL, or count the array items in the template. |

Okay, I'll go and check it out. Thanks..
it's too bad smarty doesnt have a simple tag to get total mysql query like coldfusion. With coldfusion, it's just #queryname.recordcount# and it's so simple.
Thanks! |

| Smarty is only a template language. Cold fusion is a programming language, such as PHP itself. In PHP, there are "simple" ways to get your record count, it is up to you to assign that to Smarty. |

Quite true.. thanks for clarifying.
I decided to do the following and hopefully it'll work.
$rating_info_total = mysql_num_rows($handle);
$smarty->assign('rating_info_total', $rating_info_total); |

you could cut it down to one line by
$smarty->assign('rating_info_total', mysql_num_rows($handle));
Unless of course you need the variable in your PHP code |
