mysql_close

(PHP 3, PHP 4 , PHP 5)

mysql_close -- Close MySQL connection

Description

bool mysql_close ( [resource link_identifier])

Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

mysql_close() closes the connection to the MySQL server that's associated with the specified link identifier. If link_identifier isn't specified, the last opened link is used.

Using mysql_close() isn't usually necessary, as non-persistent open links are automatically closed at the end of the script's execution. See also freeing resources.

Note: mysql_close() will not close persistent links created by mysql_pconnect().

Example 1. mysql_close() example

<?php
$link = mysql_connect('mysql.hosting-advantage.com', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password');
if (!$link) {
    die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
echo 'Connected successfully';
mysql_close($link);
?>
