note 61356 added to function.mysql-connect

Personally I tend to use the following class for all my MySQL/PHP projects. As yet I've failed to find a server where it doesn't work. Please note the class only works in PHP 5 due to the 'private' $var's inside the class. <?php class database { private $ho; private $dn; private $du; private $up; /* * $ho = Host * $dn = Database Name * $du = Database User * $up = User Password */ public function connectionparameters($ho, $dn, $du, $up) { // Sets the connection information $this->ho = $ho; $this->dn = $dn; $this->du = $du; $this->up = $up; } public function connect() { // Establishes a mysql connection and selects the database if(!$this->connection = mysql_connect($this->ho, $this->du, $this->up)) { throw new exception('Connection to mysql server could not be established.'); } if(!mysql_select_db($this->dn,$this->connection)){ throw new exception('Database could not be selected'); } } public function disconnect() { // Disconnects return mysql_close($this->connection); } } ?> To establish a connection with this class: <?php $connection = new database; $connection->connectionparameters('MYSQL_HOST', 'MYSQL_DB', 'MYSQL_USER', 'MYSQL_PASS'); try { $connection->connect(); } catch (Exception $e) { echo $e->getMessage(); exit; } ?> ---- Server IP: 84.18.202.180 Probable Submitter: 83.104.108.216 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-connect.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+61356 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61356&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61356&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61356&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61356&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61356&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61356&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61356&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+61356&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
