mysql_select_db
Select a MySQL database
(PHP 4, PHP 5, PECL mysql:1.0)
bool mysql_select_db ( string database_name [, resource link_identifier] )
Sets the current active database on the server that's associated with the specified link identifier. Every subsequent call to mysql_query() will be made on the active database.
Parameters
- database_name
The name of the database that is to be selected.
- link_identifier
The MySQL connection. If the link identifier is not specified, the last link opened by mysql_connect() is assumed. If no such link is found, it will try to create one as if mysql_connect() was called with no arguments. If by chance no connection is found or established, an
E_WARNINGlevel warning is generated.
