I'm assuming you're using MySQL since that's the one that lets you leave off the connection in all the functions, and it just uses the last one you opened. Look at the docs for mysql_query() for instance, and you'll see an optional link_identifier: $connection1 = mysql_connect('host1', ...); $connection2 = mysql_connect('host2', ...); $result1 = mysql_query("select count(*) from blah", $connection1); $result2 = mysql_query("select count(*) from blah", $connection2); -- Richard Lynch | If this was worth $$$ to you, buy a CD US Customer Support Director | from one of the artists listed here: Zend Technologies USA | http://www.L-I-E.com/artists.htm http://www.zend.com | (this has nothing to do with Zend, duh!)
