I have a file of my own functions that I include in many places. One of them uses mysql_real_escape_string, however, it may be called in a context that will or will not connect to a mysql server, and worse, may already be connected. So I must avoid connecting. However, when I run the script without connecting I get this error:
Warning: mysql_real_escape_string() [function.mysql-real-escape-string]: Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: NO) I was thinking about checking if there is a connection, and if not then connecting. This seems redundant to me, however. What is the list's opinion of this situation? Thanks in advance.

Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
