why not:
<?php
$error[] = "Connection to the database failed";
....
$db = pg_connect("dbname=rap user=postgres") die (error(0));
function error ($code) {
switch ($code) {
case 0 : reportErrMsg($error[$code]); break;
...
}
}
?>
i think ive would have done something like that...
but im not the greatest expert on php :)
