Is there any way to find out what database I am connected to from a
link identifier?

I have some code this does this:

@ $db = mysql_pconnect($dbserver, $dbuser, $dbpass);
@ mysql_select_db($dbname, $db);

I know at the time this is executed $dbname is what I want it to be.
But later on when I pull data using $db, I get data from a different
database. If I try to echo $db at the time of the query I get
"Resource id #5". Can I get the database name from $db?


Execute the query "SHOW DATABASE();" You should get one row back that contains the name of the database you are currently "using".
