count_all_results returns a string?

For a quick change to an integer you can just cast it. There are a few different ways.

Code:

$results = (integer)$this->db->count_all_results('my_table');
$results = (int)$this->db->count_all_results('my_table');
$results = intval($this->db->count_all_results('my_table'));
