PHP and MySQL question...

Folks, I am using PHP and mysql for a site, and when I do a mysql_connect (for most pages) if it succeeds I want to continue onwards. If it fails then I want to locate to a 'Site Maintenance in Progress page'. However, the problem seems to be that as soon as the connect fails the following error message is pumped out to stdout: 'Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Access denied for user: 'yyyyy@xxxxxx.com' (Using password: YES) in /pub/inc/db.inc on line 49 Now, as soon as this is sent to stdout, I can no longer use: Header ("Location: http://www.xxxxxx.com/maintenance.html"); Is there any way to disable the outputing of the warning message from mysql? Is this something I should be sending to the mysql mailing list? Thanks in advance for your time and trouble.... -- Fraser MacKenzie (fraserm@rondaksportal.com) ---------------- (ICQ: 15389075 RPGA: 805219) Rondak's Portal (http://www.rondaksportal.com/) What do you want to play today?
