It's my understanding that persistent connections via the old ext/mysql was a flawed misfeature to begin with. This was one of several misfeatrures corrected by the new mysqli extension. There is some information on the subject here: http://www.zend.com/php5/articles/php5-mysqli.php
It would be my guess that pconnect will be a thing of the past. It's sort of a drag, but running out of connections - as pconnect can cause - is a real drag too. ;) Jim Grill Web-1 Hosting http://www.web-1hosting.net ----- Original Message ----- From: "bruce" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'John Nichel'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, July 31, 2004 12:10 AM Subject: RE: [PHP] db transactions across multiple pages... > you also won't see the mysqli pconnect function... which tells me that at > least for now, it's not there... > > -bruce > > > -----Original Message----- > From: John Nichel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, July 30, 2004 8:44 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [PHP] db transactions across multiple pages... > > > bruce wrote: > > not sure if it's php/mysqli... but if you check the php.net for the > "mysqli" > > not "mysql" functions... you won't see the persistent attribute listed for > > the php.ini attributes... > > I wouldn't worry too much about that though.
