connecting database

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
May 12.2006

I need ur suggestions on how we can connect the database so that it won’t affect the process speed/memory. Now in every php page i am calling a phpfile using include_once which is having the connection with mysql. In each page i am including this file. Is this is the right method? Is any other method which will work comfortably and won’t take much memory. How we can release/reintialise once its use is over?

@nooor83May 12.2006 — im using the same way..but i saw an open source project where php is 100% OOP....i heared that using opps may slow down the performance if your web traffic is high...but i reduces the LOC alot..

@aaronbdavisMay 12.2006 — from what I understand, yes that is the right way to do things. There is also the function mysql_pconnect which opens a persistent connection, but from what I have read on a couple posts here in the forums, this is not a good idea. When using the method you currently are using, make sure to close the connection when the script is completed.
