Help with this bit of code please!

Something is wrong here...whether the email address exists in the database or not it comes back as if it does exist. It's supposed to come back with a different result if the address exists in the database.

Anyone?

PHP Code:

 if($new_sub == 'unsub') // User wants to unsubscribe the letter
  {
    $query = "DELETE FROM ${prefix}_newsletter WHERE email='$new_email'";
    if(!mysql_query($query))
    {
      echo mysql_errno(). ": ".mysql_error(). "<br>";
      CloseTable();
      include("footer.php");        
      return;
    }                   
    cgiCenter();
    echo _new_unsbuok;          
    cgiBR();
    cgiLinkM("index", "def", _new_clickhere);
    cgiCenter(1);
    CloseTable();
    include("footer.php");        
    return;         
  }
        
  CloseTable();
  include("footer.php");          
}

The SQl query is valid, it deletes 0 or more lines. If you want to check if 0 lines were removed use mysql_affected_rows()
