Re: Maintains a persistent connection

First of all, thank you for your reply. I have tried to use 'mysql_pconnect()' to connect to my database, but what I want to achieve are these: 1) Value for "Field_A" is "Value_A" and value for "Field_B" is "Value_B", by default 2) I load my "getData.php" page and get the values ("Valua_A, Valua_B") 3) Then, I manually edit the value for "Field_A" to "new_Valua_A" and Field_B to "new_Value_B". 4) The page that I loaded in step 2 still keep the old values ("Valua_A, Valua_B") Question: ========= Could my .php page ALWAYS get the latest values WITHOUT reload the page? Thanks.
