mysql_change_user

(PHP 3 <= 3.0.13)

mysql_change_userChange logged in user of the active connection

Description

int mysql_change_user ( string $user , string $password [, string $database [, resource $link_identifier ]] )

mysql_change_user() changes the logged in user of the current active connection, or the connection given by the optional link_identifier parameter. If a database is specified, this will be the current database after the user has been changed. If the new user and password authorization fails, the current connected user stays active.

This function is deprecated and no longer exists in PHP.

Parameters

user

The new MySQL username.

password

The new MySQL password.

database

The MySQL database. If not specified, the current selected database is used.

link_identifier

The MySQL connection. If the link identifier is not specified, the last link opened by mysql_connect() is assumed. If no such link is found, it will try to create one as if mysql_connect() was called with no arguments. If no connection is found or established, an E_WARNING level error is generated.

Return Values

Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

Notes

Note: Requirements
This function requires MySQL 3.23.3 or higher.

Why did they remove this function? This is useful! I'm all over the place with databases and users. Some users can only insert, others only delete - this would be the easiest way and -- they removed it. I'm calling shenanigans on PHP!
