Hello, 
I answer questions on a php help bbs (www.phpworld.com).  
One of the most common problems reported is that the users 
don't know why their database calls are not working.  
Usually they have copied the code right out of the 
examples (e.g. mysql_connect()), which do not utilize 
mysql_error().  I was wondering if these examples could be 
changed to use mysql_error() and thus reduce newbie 
confusion. 
Thank you for your time.
