How to connect to DB

Hello all, I have some existing php pages already. Now I want to change the DB to point to another DB. I have changed the include_path in php.ini file to point to /home/config Also I changed the constant db_name defined in a file in /home/config/con.php to point to new DB. [snip] <<<<<<<<< include "con.php" @mysql_pconnect(db_host,db_user,db_pass); mysql_select_db (db_name) or die ("could not select db"); <<<<<<<<<< <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< //contents of con.php <?php define('db_host','localhost'); define('db_name','newdb') ; define('db_user','scott') ; define('db_pass','tiger') ; define('db_type','mysql') ; ?> <<<<<<<<<<<<<< Also I restarted the apache. But it is still accessing the old DB. What are all the changes that I have to make. other than these changes. Regards, Murugesan.
