PHP session

[uglykidjoe]

Hi,
Guys, I would like to get a help on how to pass a mysql link id from one page to another using session!
I dont want to connect/select_db for each page that needs to query a DB... so thats why i wonder if there's any
idea on how to save that db handle ...
Any hints would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You.

I don't believe you can and you wouldn't really want to.

Even with mysql_pconnect() use, you still have to make the function call so it gets a chance to find an existing link available (if any):

[a href=\"http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-pconnect.php\" target=\"_blank\"]http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-pconnect.php[/a]


Good luck.

What do you consider the hard way? Typing the connection on every page? Yes, that is the hard way.

Just put your connection data in one file and just include it at the top of every page. Better than typing it on every single page!
