Hi,
I am connecting to two database in my index.php.
Here is how:
@ $db = mysql_connect("localhost", USERLOGIN, USERDBPASS);
if (!$db)
{ print "Error: Could not connect to database. Please try again
later."; exit; }
mysql_select_db(DATABASE);
@ $userdb = mysql_connect("localhost", USERLOGIN, USERDBPASS);
if (!$userdb)
{ print "Error: Could not connect to database. Please try again
later."; exit; }
mysql_select_db(USERDB);
$getaccount = "SELECT * FROM account WHERE visible=1"; //Account
table is present in USERDB.
$result = mysql_query($getaccount);
$get = "SELECT * FROM useraccount"; //UserAccount table is present
in DATABASE.
$result = mysql_query($get);
There is no problem with the connection. but I need to query tables
in both databases. I know you need to use link identifiers, but have
had no luck in getting it to work. Appreciate your help.
er, you are not actually using the link identifiers.... try like this:
@ $db = mysql_connect("localhost", USERLOGIN, USERDBPASS);
if (!$db) {
print "Error: Could not connect to database. Please try again
later."; exit; }
mysql_select_db(DATABASE, $db);
}
@ $userdb = mysql_connect("localhost", USERLOGIN, USERDBPASS);
if (!$userdb) {
print "Error: Could not connect to database. Please try again
later."; exit; }
mysql_select_db(USERDB, $userdb);
}
$getaccount = "SELECT * FROM account WHERE visible=1"; //Account
table is present in USERDB.
$result = mysql_query($getaccount, $userdb);
$get = "SELECT * FROM useraccount"; //UserAccount table is present in
DATABASE.
$result = mysql_query($get, $db);
Thanks.
