Name
db_exec() - execute a SQL query
Synopsis
mixed db_exec( int handle, string query );
Description
Do not use this! See warning above.
db_exec() sends the SQL query `query' to the database server using the connection `handle'. It returns the number of rows in the result set of the query, which can be used when retrieving the result using db_fetch() later. For certain queries, such as INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE statements, the number of rows will be 0 because there is no result set.
Errors
When there was an error executing the query this error is returned as a string.
The format depends on the database engine used in the game driver.
