What's the deal with "Rogue" or "Zombie" processes? To do error handling
with MySQL, I use something like this:
if (!mysql_connect() = TRUE) {
echo "Connected";
} else {
echo "Connection failed";
}
I've been told that if I don't use the "or die()" method of error handling
that I could spawn rogue processes. Wassat and is it for real?
