php - Checking If MySQL Rows Returned>10 and if so running some code, if not running a different piece of code -

i have code below supposed check database entries username working when try add code check if rows returned greater 10 , run code limit number of rows 10 , if not run piece of code display rows.

code:

    mysql_select_db("blahblah", $con); //connect database..     $username =  basename(dirname(__file__));     $username = mysql_real_escape_string($username);     $checkres = mysql_query("select count link, notes, titles, color links username='" . $username . "';");     if ($checkres>10)     {     $resultsmall = mysql_query("select link, notes, titles, color links username='" . $username . "' limit 10;");     while ($rowsmall = mysql_fetch_array($resultsmall)) { //loop       extract($rowsmall);       $htmlsmall .= " //code goes here format results                 ";     echo $htmlsmall; //display results...     }     }     else {     $result = mysql_query("select link, notes, titles, color links username='" . $username . "';");     while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { //loop       extract($row);       $html .= "             //code goes here format results                 ";     echo $html; //display results...     }     }     mysql_close($con); //close db.. 

but displays 2 times number of rows in database instead of either limiting or displaying them all. how fix this? //code goes here formatting isn't important formats code looks nice , displays in box...

thanks!

i have code has been kindly helped col. shrapnel doesn't display me , don't know why, please help.

code:

mysql_select_db("blahblah", $con); //connect database.. $username =  basename(dirname(__file__)); $username = mysql_real_escape_string($username); $sql = "select link, notes, titles, color links username='$username' limit 10"; $res = mysql_query($sql); if (mysql_num_rows() == 10) { while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($res)) {   extract($row);   $htmlsmall .= " 

= "; $htmlfree .= "only 10 allowed."; echo $htmlsmall; echo $htmlfree; } } else { while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($res)) { extract($rowsmall); $htmlsmall .= "

  "; echo $htmlsmall; } } 

now if view page source can see these 2 errors:

<b>warning</b>:  wrong parameter count mysql_num_rows() in <b>//url here</b> on line <b>109</b><br />    <b>warning</b>:  mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument not valid mysql result resource in <b>//url file goes here</b> on line <b>125</b><br />  

line 109 this: if (mysql_num_rows() == 10) {

line 125 this: while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($res)) {

(those lines in code above)

please me this?

thanks!

i try add code check if rows returned greater 10 , run code limit number of rows 10

it makes no sense.
run query limit 10 , data.

mysql_select_db("blahblah", $con); //connect database.. $username =  basename(dirname(__file__)); $username = mysql_real_escape_string($username); $sql = "select * links username='$username' limit 10"; $res = mysql_query($sql) or trigger_error(mysql_error()." ".$sql); while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($res)) {   extract($rowsmall);   $htmlsmall .= ""; //code goes here format results } echo $htmlsmall; 

that's all. if still want echo "only 10 allowed." (dunno why though) can add these 3 lines below

if (mysql_num_rows($res) == 10) {   echo "only 10 allowed."; } 

however see not point in it.

also note program design wrong, you're apparently copying file every user in system
