    <p>Before you say it has been answered before, I have tried everything, literally.</p> <p>I am trying to count the number of rows in a mysqli query with two WHERE clauses.</p> <pre><code>if (isset($_POST['member_name']) and isset($_POST['memeber_password'])) { $member_name_input = mysqli_real_escape_string($query, $_POST['member_name']); $member_password_input = mysqli_real_escape_string($query, $_POST['member_password']); $result = mysqli_query($query, "SELECT count(*) AS member_count FROM `members` WHERE `member_name` = '$member_name_input' AND `member_password` = '$member_password_input'") or die(mysqli_error($query)); $counter = $row['member_count']; if ($counter = 1) { $result = mysqli_query($query, "SELECT * FROM `members` WHERE `member_name`='$member_name_input' AND `member_password`='$member_password_input'") or die(mysqli_error($query)); $row = mysqli_fetch_array($result); $member_suspended = $row['member_suspended']; $member_validation = $row['member_validation']; } if ($member_suspended &lt; time() and $member_validation = 2) { $_SESSION['member_id'] = $row['member_id']; echo $counter; } elseif ($member_suspended &gt;= time()) { $suspension_date = date('d. m. y.', $member_suspended); echo '&lt;div class="left_container"&gt;&lt;h3&gt;You are suspended until '.$suspension_date.'.&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;/div&gt;'; } elseif ($member_validation = 1) { echo '&lt;div class="left_container"&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Your account has not been confirmed, yet.&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;/div&gt;'; } else { echo '&lt;div class="left_container"&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Login unsuccessful.&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;/div&gt;'; } } </code></pre> <p>My problem is that when I try logging in with an invalid password and/or username (the combination doesn't exists in the table), $counter is still 1 and it fulfills the requirements for the first if statement.</p> <p>I have tried counting the rows in many ways, none of which worked.</p> <p>Some of the other attempts were:</p> <pre><code>$counter = 0; while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)) { ++$counter; } </code></pre> <p>and</p> <pre><code>$counter = mysqli_num_rows($result); </code></pre> <p>I'm just trying to come up with a way to log my users in successfully, and show error messages to invalid login attempts.</p> <p>Thank you for taking your time to read through this and try to help. :)</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
