What is the easiest way to get the total number of
rows in a table? I want to do a random pick from a
table and need to know how many rows are in the
table.
Do I do a "SELECT * FROM table" and use the info
from this, or will a select return all the data?
This is where I'm hazy. Or does fetch_row actually
return the data?
Any help is appreciated,
