Re: [PHP] reuse database connections
You can use persistent connections from php to mysql server using mysql_pconnect(host,user,passwd) then go on to use the returned link. this will open a new connection only if one is not available. kumar Support @ Fourthrealm.com wrote: Another question about efficiency / using server resources: In another language I use, I can re-use an ODBC connection to make further queries/update/etc to the database to save the overhead of closing and reopening the connection to the db over and over. It works sometime like this (in the other language): iSQL DBNAME='xxx' LOGIN='xxx' SQL='some query' # opens the connection ... display results... iSQLMORE SQL='some other query' # reuses the connection display other results /iSQL # closes the connection Is there an equivalent in PHP to this, using the mySQL set of tags?

Re: [PHP] rewriting a line in a text file
Try using an unique number as the first field of the line. You can then use that number to select the line (entry) and update it.
