Sigh ...

I have "functions.inc" in which I have Table_Title().

As soon as I put my database connection inside my function called
Table_Title(), my database connection fails. (See second example below.)

My database connection works fine whenever IT IS NOT inside "function
Table_Title()". (See first example below.)

It seems that when I try to connect to my database inside "function
Table_Title()", my function cannot read the values of $server, $user,
$pass, "$db or $table ???

I call it normally??

<?php Table_Title() ?>

Can anyone help??


--------------SNIP THIS WORKS FINE! --------------------
<?php

$server = "localhost";
$user = "MyAccount";
$pass = "MyPassword";
$db = "MyDatabase";
$table = "bookmark_unit4";

 $myconnection = mysql_pconnect($server,$user,$pass);
 mysql_select_db($db,$myconnection);
 $news = mysql_query("SHOW TABLE STATUS FROM ".$db." LIKE '$table'");
 while ($news_story = mysql_fetch_array($news))
 {
        $table_comment = $news_story['Comment'];
 }
    echo $table_comment;

function Table_Title()
{
echo "Nothing";
}
?>
