msql_query

Description

msql_query() sends a query to the currently active database on the server that's associated with the specified link identifier. If the link identifier isn't specified, the last opened link is assumed. If no link is open, the function tries to establish a link as if msql_connect() was called, and use it.

Returns a positive mSQL query identifier on success, or FALSE on error.

<?php 
$link = msql_connect("dbserver")
   or die("unable to connect to msql server: ".msql_error());
msql_select_db("db", $link)
   or die("unable to select database 'db': ".msql_error());

$result = msql_query("SELECT * FROM table WHERE id=1", $link);
if (!$result) {
   die("query failed: ".msql_error());
}

while ($row = msql_fetch_array($result)) {
    echo $row["id"];
}
 ?>
