fbsql_connect - Open a connection to a FrontBase Server

SYNOPSIS

       resource  fbsql_connect	([string  $hostname = ini_get("fbsql.default_host")], [string  $username = ini_get("fbsql.default_user")], [string
       $password = ini_get("fbsql.default_password")])

DESCRIPTION

       fbsql_connect(3) establishes a connection to a FrontBase server.

	If a second call is made to fbsql_connect(3) with the same arguments, no new link will be established, but instead, the link identifier of
       the already opened link will be returned.

	The  link  to  the  server  will  be  closed as soon as the execution of the script ends, unless it's closed earlier by explicitly calling
       fbsql_close(3).

PARAMETERS

	      o $hostname
		- The server host name.

	      o $username
		- The user name for the connection.

	      o $password
		- The password for the connection.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns a positive FrontBase link identifier on success, or FALSE on errors.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      fbsql_connect(3) example

	      <?php

	      $link = fbsql_connect("localhost", "_SYSTEM", "secret")
		  or die("Could not connect");
	      echo "Connected successfully";
	      fbsql_close($link);

FBSQL_ERROR(3)								 1							    FBSQL_ERROR(3)

fbsql_error - Returns the error message from previous operation

SYNOPSIS

       string fbsql_error ([resource  $link_identifier])

DESCRIPTION

	Returns the error message from previous FrontBase operation.

	Errors coming back from the fbsql database backend don't issue warnings. Instead, use fbsql_error(3) to retrieve the error text. Note that
       this function only returns the error code from the most recently executed fbsql function (not including fbsql_error(3) and fbsql_errno(3)),
       so if you want to use it, make sure you check the value before calling another fbsql function.

PARAMETERS

	      o $
		link_identifier  -A FrontBase link identifier returned by fbsql_connect(3) or fbsql_pconnect(3).If optional and not specified, the
		function will try to find an open link to the FrontBase server and if no such link is found it	will  try  to  create  one  as	if
		fbsql_connect(3) was called with no arguments.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns the error text from the last fbsql function, or '' (the empty string) if no error occurred.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      fbsql_error(3) Example

	      <?php
	      fbsql_connect("marliesle");
	      echo fbsql_errno() . ": " . fbsql_error() . "<br />";
	      fbsql_select_db("nonexistentdb");
	      echo fbsql_errno() . ": " . fbsql_error() . "<br />";
	      $conn = fbsql_query("SELECT * FROM nonexistenttable;");
	      echo fbsql_errno() . ": " . fbsql_error() . "<br />";
	      ?>
