Hi,
I make a php program with MySql database. When I do a connection to MySql I have the same Id number connection (every time, Id number 1). If I do several connections with other username and password, for all these connections I have the same Id number 1. I dont' know if it is normal or not...

If you connect to mysql successfully, php returns a positive link identifier (1). If the connection fails php returns false. This is normal, and detailed in the manual:

Associate the links with different variables.

$db = mysql_pconnect(...);
$db_other = mysql_pconnect(...);

$query = mysql_query("...", $db);
/* OR */
$query = mysql_query("...", $db_other);

Now you know which identifier you are using at any given time.
