Hi,
I am experiencing a problem with this function;
funcion do_connect($server, $db, $user, $pass){
$link = @mysql_pconnect($server, $user, "$pass")
or die("error: mysql_pconnect()");
mysql_select_db($db) or die("error: mysql_select_db()");
}
when supplied with variables that are correct (server, db, etc) it fails at
mysql_select_db(), however if I remove "or die("error: mysql_select_db()")"
it works. Can anyone explain why.
My config is apache 1.3.14, php 4.1, mysql 3.23.41
Thanks,
Malcolm
