note 81814 added to function.mysql-ping

This is such a useful function!!! I have shared hosting and recently i have found that now and again the connection to the server is dropped half way through script execution! When its dropped i just get error after error that the queries are failing. With the ping function you can check to see if a query failed due to syntax errors in the query OR if it was because their is no longer a connection to the database and so perform a reconnect. Very useful function :-) Kind regards, Scott ---- Server IP: 87.124.64.96 Probable Submitter: 212.139.67.154 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-ping.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/81814 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/81814/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/81814/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/81814/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/81814/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/81814/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/81814/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/81814 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/81814 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
