zeev, the problem is boolean operators on resources! <? $conn=mysql_connect("127.0.0.1"); for ($inx = 0; $inx < 10; $inx++) { $r = mysql_db_query("test", "select * from phptest"); if ($r == false) {} // comment this line out and it'll work! $array = mysql_fetch_array($r); } echo "-----------------------end--------------\n";flush(); ?> just insert the "if ($r == false) {}" line and the resource will no longer work. regards, tc On Fri, 3 Sep 1999, Zeev Suraski wrote: > At 14:20 03/09/99 , Thies C.
