showing current database

[sfullman]

you know how you can do this:

mysql_select_db('mydb',$cnx);

1. How can I display the current database?
2. How would I find out if there is NO current database selected?
3. If I want to check if a database is selected before I select a database, is it even worth while to go through the process? I'm thinking no.

In any case, i really DO need an answer to #1 and couldn't find it in php docs.

Thanks,
Sam
