I think a valuable addition to the MySQL functionality would be a way to run multiple statements per mysql_query() call. For instance:

mysql_query('CREATE DATABASE mynewdb; CREATE TABLE newtable(id TINYINT NOT NULL);', $mysql_link);

Currently,  I would get a SQL syntax error at the first semicolon.  How would results be handled, from SELECTs, INSERTs, etc?  Maybe an array of results/IDs could be returned, or a result/ID set that is itself an array.

Thank you,
