                                mssql_pconnect

   (PHP 3, PHP 4 )
   mssql_pconnect -- Open persistent MS SQL connection

Description

   int mssql_pconnect ( [string servername [, string username [, string
   password]]])

   Returns: A positive MS SQL persistent link identifier on success, or
   FALSE on error.

   mssql_pconnect() acts very much like mssql_connect() with two major
   differences.

   First, when connecting, the function would first try to find a
   (persistent) link that's already open with the same host, username and
   password. If one is found, an identifier for it will be returned
   instead of opening a new connection.

   Second, the connection to the SQL server will not be closed when the
   execution of the script ends. Instead, the link will remain open for
   future use (mssql_close() will not close links established by
   mssql_pconnect()).

   This type of links is therefore called 'persistent'.
