# odbc_pconnect

(PHP 4, PHP 5)

odbc_pconnect — Open a persistent database connection

### Description

resource odbc_pconnect ( string `$dsn` , string `$user` , string `$password` [, int `$cursor_type` ] )

Returns an ODBC connection id or 0 (`FALSE`) on error. This function is much like odbc_connect(), except that the connection is not really closed when the script has finished. Future requests for a connection with the same `dsn` , `user` , `password` combination (via odbc_connect() and odbc_pconnect()) can reuse the persistent connection.

> Note: Persistent connections have no effect if PHP is used as a CGI program.

For information about the optional cursor_type parameter see the odbc_connect() function. For more information on persistent connections, refer to the PHP FAQ.
