I have many functions that use a mysql_result_resource that is declared global (i.e. global $mysql_link).  For some reason after a call to those functions my mysql_connection disappears/is closed.

I open a connection to mysql ($conn) for use in my program.  Then I call a function (FuncName) that begins with the line (global $conn).  Even though there is no mysql_close($conn) statement when the function returns I no longer have a mysql connection.  This causes subsequent database queries to return "mysql resource error".  Therefore, it appears as though the mysql connection is being closed by the function.

i don't think that counts as a script. you know, something that we could actually run. code, you know?

and:
1. no, don't paste your whole application here.
   isolate the problem to the lowest line count possible.
2. *no* echo "<html><pre><font>$foo</font></pre></html>" stuff if it's not required to make the bug show up;
   strip anrything that's not absolutely needed.
3. it needs to be *actual code*. just waving it like this makes it harder for the developers, and you're less likely to get a speedy fix.
4. *paste* the code here: "i made a typo when i was typing it in here coz i can't use clipboard" threads are wasting resources and have the same ill effect as the previous point. the PHP developers don't enjoy finding actual bugs buried in heaps of parse errors.

i hope that was explicit enough.
