[RESOLVED] getting nothing from mysql_select_db

[blanius]

I get nothing back from a call
$s=mysql_select_db('mydb');
I verified that I'm connected to mydb with mysql_connect but $s is blank not True nor False I was testing this as my result of a mysql_query call is empty as well and was trying to track down where it fails.

So after mysql_connect I have a valid resourse named $db and then when I try mysql_select_db I get nothing...

This code was working fine on another site with PHP4 is this maybe a PHP5 gotcha?

Well what does mysql_error() after the mysql_select_db say? Its not a PHP 5 problem.

That's just it no error is generated.

Ah... I just check and there is an error. I assumed that it would show false. Thanks. I know where to look now.
