mysqli_select_db (PHP 5 CVS only) mysqli_select_db (no version information, might be only in CVS) mysqli->select_db -- Selects the default database for database queries Descriptionbool mysqli_select_db ( object link, string dbname)
The mysqli_select_db() function selects the default database (specified by the dbname parameter) to be used when performing queries against the database connection represented by the link parameter. Note: This function should only be used to change the default database for the connection. You can select the default database with 4th parameter in mysqli_connect().
Return values
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure. ExampleExample 1. Object oriented style <?php
$mysqli = new mysqli("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "test");
/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
exit();
}
/* return name of current default database */
if ($result = $mysqli->query("SELECT DATABASE()")) {
$row = $result->fetch_row();
printf("Default database is %s.\n", $row[0]);
$result->close();
}
/* change db to world db */
$mysqli->select_db("world");
/* return name of current default database */
if ($result = $mysqli->query("SELECT DATABASE()")) {
$row = $result->fetch_row();
printf("Default database is %s.\n", $row[0]);
$result->close();
}
$mysqli->close();

Example 2. Procedural style <?php
$link = mysqli_connect("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "test");
/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
exit();
}
/* return name of current default database */
if ($result = mysqli_query($link, "SELECT DATABASE()")) {
$row = mysqli_fetch_row($result);
printf("Default database is %s.\n", $row[0]);
mysqli_free_result($result);
}
/* change db to world db */
mysqli_select_db($link, "world");
/* return name of current default database */
if ($result = mysqli_query($link, "SELECT DATABASE()")) {
$row = mysqli_fetch_row($result);
printf("Default database is %s.\n", $row[0]);
mysqli_free_result($result);
}
mysqli_close($link);
?> |

The above examples would produce the following output: Default database is test. Default database is world. |
