((( Two Simultaneous Database Connections )))

[MacroPhotoPro]

I am trying to access two databases on the same php page - one that I created, and the other being the vBulletin database.

         // On Server Development
         $host = 'localhost';
         $user = 'user";
         $pass = 'passwerd';

         // Define the databases 
         $user_database = 'forum';
         $cust_database = 'custom_database';

         // Establish the connections
         $user_con = mysql_connect($host,$user,$pass) or die(mysql_error());
         $cust_con = mysql_connect($host,$user,$pass) or die(mysql_error());

         // Connect to the databases
         mysql_select_db($user_database, $user_con);
         mysql_select_db($cust_database, $cust_con);

         // Close the connections
         mysql_close($user_con);         
         mysql_close($cust_con);         

         // Demonstrate that the connections didn't throw an exception
         phpinfo();

It's not working and there seems to be some mechanism preventing it from working.

Why can I not have two simultaneous connections? Is there some prohibition against having two simultaneous database connections with MYSQL? If you require additional information, please let me know.

Thank you,

Jack
