Note the trailing whitespace in query:

<?
mysql_select_db("test");
mysql_query("select * from tab; ");
echo mysql_error();
?>

Result:

You have an error in your SQL syntax near '; ' at line 1

Again, note the trailing whitespace. Without it, it's OK.

It's particullary annoying with heredoc syntax.

Lose the ; and it will always work. The ; is not needed from mysql_query().

Not a bug -> Bogus.
