I have a custom function called "query" with PDO statement in the functions.php file:

 /**

     * Executes SQL statement, possibly with parameters, returning

     * an array of all rows in result set or false on (non-fatal) error.

     */

    function query(/* $sql [, ... ] */)

    {

        // SQL statement

        $sql = func_get_arg(0);



        // parameters, if any

        $parameters = array_slice(func_get_args(), 1);



        // try to connect to database

        static $handle;

        if (!isset($handle))

        {

            try

            {

                // connect to database

                $handle = new PDO("mysql:dbname=" . DB_NAME . ";host=" . DB_SERVER, DB_USERNAME, DB_PASSWORD);



                // ensure that PDO::prepare returns false when passed invalid SQL

                $handle->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES, false); 

            }

            catch (Exception $e)

            {

                // trigger (big, orange) error

                trigger_error($e->getMessage(), E_USER_ERROR);

                exit;

            }

        }



        // prepare SQL statement

        $statement = $handle->prepare($sql);

        if ($statement === false)

        {

            // trigger (big, orange) error

            trigger_error($handle->errorInfo()[2], E_USER_ERROR);

            exit;

        }



        // execute SQL statement

        $results = $statement->execute($parameters);



        // return result set's rows, if any

        if ($results !== false)

        {

            return $statement->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);

        }

        else

        {

            return false;

        }

    }

I'm trying to rewrite/update my old script. Now, how do I use the above to modify the following old mysql_query and mysql_num_rows statements I have in my old script?:

$sql  = "SELECT al_id, al_name, al_image, COUNT(im_album_id) AS al_numimage
         FROM tbl_album al LEFT JOIN tbl_image im ON al.al_id = im.im_album_id
         GROUP by al_id  
         ORDER BY al_name";
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die('Error, list product category failed. ' . mysql_error());

if (mysql_num_rows($result) == 0) {
    echo "No product category yet";
}

And again, how do I rewrite this, to be in line with PDO?:

while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
        if ($i % $colsPerRow == 0) {
            // start a new row
            echo '<tr>';
        }
