It seems that killing one of the references kills all the references. The solution is to a use the fourth parameter on mysql_connect(). The "new_link" param. So ... <?php $db1 = mysql_connect($host, $username, $pwd, True); // Make sure a new link is created. $db2 = mysql_connect($host, $username, $pwd, True); // Make sure a new link is created. $sql = 'show databases'; mysql_close($db1); $db1 = true; //a new line $res = mysql_query($sql, $db2); $a = mysql_fetch_row($res); print_r($a); ?> should work. -- ----- Richard Quadling "Standing on the shoulders of some very clever giants!"
