                                  mysql_close

   (PHP 3, PHP 4 )
   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
       $link = mysql_connect("localhost", "mysql_user", "mysql_password")
           or die("Could not connect: " . mysql_error());
       echo "Connected successfully";
       mysql_close($link);
   ?>

   See also mysql_connect() and mysql_pconnect().
