       string dbx_error (object  $link_identifier)

DESCRIPTION

PARAMETERS
	      o $link_identifier
		- The DBX link object returned by dbx_connect(3)

RETURN VALUES
	Returns  a string containing the error message from the last function call of the abstracted module (e.g. mysql module). If there are mul-
       tiple connections in the same module, just the last error is given. If there are connections on different  modules,  the  latest  error	is

EXAMPLES
       Example #1

	      dbx_error(3) example

	      <?php
	      $link   = dbx_connect(DBX_MYSQL, "localhost", "db", "username", "password")
		  or die("Could not connect");

	      $result = dbx_query($link, "select id from non_existing_table");
	      if ($result == 0) {
		  echo dbx_error($link);
	      }
	      dbx_close($link);
	      ?>

NOTES
       Note

	       Always refer to the module-specific documentation as well.

	       The error message for Microsoft SQL Server is actually the result of the mssql_get_last_message(3) function.

	       The error message for Oracle (oci8) is not implemented yet.
