Mysql_select_db () Function

[klite]

I am using Php language and i need information on mysql_select_db() Function. What are the syntax used while defining mysql_select_db() Function.

[Zecho]

mysql_select_db() sets the current active database on the server that's associated with the specified link identifier. mysql_select_db() is not useful unless the user who trying to access database with permission and user can be authenticated.

mysql_select_db() sets the active database for the connection referenced by connection. Syntax : mysql_select_db(database,connection). database : Required. Specifies the database to select.mysql_select_db() function sets the active MySQL database.

The connection to the db is also between the webserver and the dataserver. mysql_select_db() attempts to select existing database on the server associated with the specified link identifier.Your connection string should definitely be in a seperate file while opening the database with mysql_select_db.
