Combining mysql_select_db() and mysql_query()

The PHP MySQL API includes a function that is able to group the selection of a database and a query against that database. This function is called mysql_db_query() and can be used in place of mysql_select_db() and mysql_query(). The syntax for the proper way to use this command is: $query_result = mysql_db_query($db_name, $query, $link_id); ... or without the $link_id variable ... $query_result = mysql_db_query($db_name, $query);
