If your php is using a permanant connection then it will be the same
connection otherwise it will be a new connection as the connection will
be droped at the end of the thread. As I understand it anyway!!

Hope this helps!

>what happens when i start moving through all these web pages (php scripts), each requires auth.php, with respect to the connection? is a new connection established for every web page i go into that uses my $dbh for querying purposes or is it the same connection i originally made when i first logged into the web site?
