[FX.php List] FoundCount FMAS 7 vs FM 6

[Michael Layne]

Kim,

I haven't spent a ton of time finding out WHY, but I found the same  
thing when I started to migrate my applications, and I did exactly  
what you proposed, works fine.

When I'm authenticating a user, I just use :

if ($r['foundCount'] == 1) {
     //all is fine
} else {
     // no user found...
}


otherwise:

if ($r['foundCount'] <= 0) {
...
