Using the $rows variable is not really advisable because the script must do
_fetchall_ before,
to it means that it will have to transfer all the rows to the client first.
If u have small tables
you may not notice a difference but generaly it's not the right thing to do.

Use "select count(id) from table"
or use $rows as a counter when doing iteration fetching record
