mysql_close

Description

Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

mysql_close() closes the connection to the MySQL server that's associated with the specified link identifier. If link_identifier isn't specified, the last opened link is used.

Using mysql_close() isn't usually necessary, as non-persistent open links are automatically closed at the end of the script's execution. See also freeing resources.

Example 1. MySQL close example <?php $link = mysql_connect("localhost", "mysql_user", "mysql_password") or die("Could not connect: " . mysql_error()); print ("Connected successfully"); mysql_close($link); ?>
