Returns the error number from the last MySQL function, or 0 (zero) if no error occurred.
Errors coming back from the MySQL database backend no longer issue warnings. Instead, use mysql_errno() to retrieve the error code. Note that this function only returns the error code from the most recently executed MySQL function (not including mysql_error() and mysql_errno()), so if you want to use it, make sure you check the value before calling another MySQL function.
<?php
mysql_connect("localhost", "mysql_user", "mysql_password");
mysql_select_db("nonexistentdb");
echo mysql_errno() . ": " . mysql_error(). "\n";
mysql_select_db("kossu");
mysql_query("SELECT * FROM nonexistenttable");
echo mysql_errno() . ": " . mysql_error() . "\n";
?>The above example would produce the following output:
1049: Unknown database 'nonexistentdb'
1146: Table 'kossu.nonexistenttable' doesn't existIf the optional argument is specified the given link is used to retrieve the error code. If not, the last opened link is used.
