calling function from function?

function db( $host, $user, $pass, $dbnam ) { $db = @mysql_pconnect( $host, $user, $pass )or die( mysql_error( $db ));

       @mysql_select_db( $dbnam )or die( mysql_error( $db ) );

return $db; } function logs() { global $defined; db( $defined[9], $defined[1], $defined[2], $defined[3] ); ... do some processing ... } what am i missing here? i get errors if i try to pass $db to logs. i.e. logs( $db ); -- Jason Gerfen jason.gerfen@scl.utah.edu "And remember...
