Drupal return number of results in a View

Question

I have a view in Drupal that filters my content. It brings back 7 rows. All I want to return is the number or results returned(7). Is this possible?

I tried using the View result counter but it returns a number for each results

1 2 3 4 5 6 7

I just need the 7 part.

So in SQL I would do a select count(*)

Hi Linda,

what you can do is to activate php for the views header/footer and add the following snippet to it:

<?php
  $view = views_get_current_view();
  print $view->total_rows; 
?>

This will print the total number of rows.

If you need the result as a field, you could use the "Views custom field" module, add a php field and run the same snippet.
