In addition to the comments made by baldurien at club-internet dot fr it's really important to specify which resource id to use in queries when connecting to two or more databases at once. A lot of my code was using mysql_select_db($database_Name, $resource_ID); $result = mysql_query($query); When using one database only this presents no problem. When using two different connections from two different servers everything needs to sepcify which resource to use. $result = mysql_query($query, $resource_ID); Although this is probably stating the obvious to old hands it's definately a trap to new players (and lazy coders like me) ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-connect.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+60649 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60649&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60649&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60649&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60649&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60649&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60649&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60649&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+60649&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
