[PHP] something about the documentation

2001-08-13 Thread Yamin Prabudy

Hi there there is something missing in the documentation.
in this case is about mysql
here is the source that i paste from the website
--
$link = mysql_connect(mysql_host, mysql_login, mysql_password)
or die (Could not connect);
print (Connected successfully);
mysql_select_db (my_database)
or die (Could not select database);

$query = SELECT * FROM my_table;
$result = mysql_query ($query)
or die (Query failed);
---

as i see the $link that do mysql_connect had been state but never been call in the 
progress such as mysql_select_db(my_database)  [ sould be 
mysql_select_db(my_database,$link) ]
so i assume that there wouldn't be any connection to mysql.

sorry if i'm wrong 
but for the newbies it's can be a miss guide

Thanks in Advance

The $link argument is optional.  If you don't specify one it will just use
the last one created.
