Hi, just a theoretical question: is it neccessary/useful/good to specify the link_identifer for a query if I include an ypplication file where the link is opened in every file. quote: If link_identifier isn't specified, the last opened link is assumed. If no link is open, the function tries to establish a link as if mysql_connect was called with no arguments, and use it. quote_end; So I assume the link opened by the application-include would be used or could this cause some trouble? thanks in advance johannes -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
