It still was causing some kind of conflict. - I guess the <em>mysql_select_db()</em> is persistent (or *can* be persistent) even AFTER <em>mysql_close()</em>. Personally - I think "UNSELECTING" a database should be a function in PHP - maybe they'll add it. But MAN was that driving me crazy!

I do see how it works. :) I usually just make sure I have mysql_close() after my query is done, and only open connections when they're necessary. Wow, that is a new and interesting way of doing it.
