odbc_pconnect

odbc_pconnect -- Open a persistent database connection

Description

int odbc_pconnect(string dsn, string user, string password);

Returns an ODBC connection id or 0 (false) on error. This function is much like odbc_connect(), except that the connection is not really closed when the script has finished. Future requests for a connection with the same dsn, user, password combination (via odbc_connect() and odbc_pconnect()) can reuse the persistent connection.

NOTE: Persistent connections have no effect if PHP is used as a CGI program.

For more information on persistent connections, refer to the PHP3 FAQ.
