<para>
<function>mysql_affected_rows</function> returns the number
of rows affected by the last INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE query
associated with <parameter>link_identifier</parameter>. If the
link identifier isn't specified, the last link opened by
<function>mysql_connect</function> is assumed.
</para>
<note>
<para>
If you are using transactions, you need to call
<function>mysql_affected_rows</function> after your INSERT,
UPDATE, or DELETE query, not after the commit.
</para>
</note>
<para>
If the last query was a DELETE query with no WHERE clause, all
of the records will have been deleted from the table but this
function will return zero.
</para>
<note>
<para>
When using UPDATE, MySQL will not update columns where the new
value is the same as the old value. This creates the possiblity
that <function>mysql_affected_rows</function> may not actually
equal the number of rows matched, only the number of rows that
were literally affected by the query.
</para>
</note>
<para>
<function>mysql_affected_rows</function> does not work with
SELECT statements; only on statements which modify records. To
retrieve the number of rows returned by a SELECT, use
<function>mysql_num_rows</function>.
</para>
<para>
If the last query failed, this function will return -1.
</para>
<para>
See also: <function>mysql_num_rows</function>.
