Do you mean the query string is long, or the result set is? How long are we
talking?
Some things to try:
Right after executing the query if you don't get a result, do an "echo
mysql_error();" This will tell you if there was an error message.
Check MySQL's "max_allowed_packet" variable. This can cause problems with
long queries (although you should get an error).
Is it possible that the result of your query really is empty (i.e., the
WHERE or HAVING clauses aren't satisfied)?
