something about the documentation

Hi there there is something missing in the documentation..... in this case is about mysql here is the source that i paste from the website -------------------------------------- $link = mysql_connect("mysql_host", "mysql_login", "mysql_password") or die ("Could not connect"); print ("Connected successfully"); mysql_select_db ("my_database") or die ("Could not select database"); $query = "SELECT * FROM my_table"; $result = mysql_query ($query) or die ("Query failed"); --------------------------------------- as i see the $link that do mysql_connect had been state but never been call in the progress such as mysql_select_db("my_database") [ sould be mysql_select_db("my_database",$link) ] so i assume that there wouldn't be any connection to mysql..... sorry if i'm wrong but for the newbies it's can be a miss guide Thanks in Advance Yamin Prabudy
