Sybase_connect returning string ??

Hi All The documentation for sybase_connect() claims to return an integer, and this is indeed the case when using the sybase db library. However, when using ct-lib the function sometimes returns a string e.g. Resource id #1 and some odd behaviour as illustrated in the code below. The following code: for ($i=0;$i<8;$i++) { echo sybase_connect("SYBASE","xx","xxx"); sybase_select_db("mydb"); } Produces: Resource id #1 1 1 1 Warning 1 is not a valid Sybase-Link resource in /xxx/xxx/..... line x Resource id # 2 2 2 2 Warning 2 is not a valid Sybase-Link resource in /xxx/xxx/..... line x If sybase_close() is added below the statement sybase_select_db("mydb") the following results: Resource id #1 Resource id #2 Resource id #3 .. Resource id #8 Any ideas as to this behaviour? Thanks David.
