<A

><B

> with two major differences.
</P
><P
>
First, when connecting, the function would first try to
find a (persistent) link that's already open with the same host.
If one is found, an identifier for it will be returned instead of
opening a new connection.
</P
><P
>
Second, the connection to the SQL server will not be closed when
the execution of the script ends. Instead, the link will remain
open for future use (<A
HREF="function.msql-close.html"
><B
CLASS="function"
>msql_close()</B
></A
> will not
close links established by <B
CLASS="function"
>msql_pconnect()</B
>).
</P
><P
>
This type of links is therefore called 'persistent'.
