Kind of difficult to explain so here you have it. (This is not the
exact script but structure.)
**OCCURANCE #1
---mysql.php---
$dbhost = "localhost";
$dbuser = "user";
...
function dbconnect() { global $dbhost, $dbuser
if (!mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser,...)) { die..}
else if (!mysql_select_db(...)) { die..}
else { print "connection ok"; }
}
dbconnect();
---end mysql.php---
I ran this script throug my browser, it worked.
**OCCURANCE #2
---mysql.php---
$dbhost = "localhost";
$dbuser = "user";
...
function dbconnect() { global $dbhost, $dbuser
if (!mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser,...)) { die..}
else if (!mysql_select_db(...)) { die..}
else { print "connection ok"; }
}
---end mysql.php---
---test.php---
require "mysql.php";
dbconnect();
---end test.php---
No result.
**OCCURENCE #3
---mysql.php---
$dbhost = "localhost";
$dbuser = "user";
...
function dbconnect() { global $dbhost, $dbuser
if (!mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser,...)) { die..}
else if (!mysql_select_db(...)) { die..}
else { print "connection ok"; }
}
dbconnect();
---end mysql.php---
Nothings happens, although #1 and #3 are exact. I should have received
the same result if the scripts are exact, right? I am confused. This
was within one minute time span. I don't know if this is a bug or
really matters at all but something doesn't seem right, and that gets
annoying. PHP 4.2.1 is very annoying. I lub PHP --all $_GET, $_POST,
globals, ETC. make me sick. :0`',
I do not understand why #1 was successfull in the first place, with
global $vars;.
Sincerely, RG.
