That was the solution that Metabase adopted a long time ago, but since PHP 4.0.6 a big ugly message is spit by PHP when you call that function telling you that it is deprecated. The definitive solution in the current Metabase version is to use mysql_select_database before each and every query that accesses a specific database. Regards, Manuel Lemos
