    string $dsn,
    string $user,

)

Opens a persistent database connection.

This function is much like odbc_connect, except that the connection is not really closed when the script has finished. Future requests for a connection with the same dsn, user, password combination (via odbc_connect and odbc_pconnect) can reuse the persistent connection.

Parameters

See odbc_connect for details.

Return Values

Returns an ODBC connection, or false on failure. error.

Notes

Note: Persistent connections have no effect if PHP is used as a CGI program.
