If you are receiving errors like:
Warning: mysql_close(): 5 is not a valid MySQL-Link resource
Check that you are calling mysql_error() and mysql_errno() BEFORE you call mysql_close().
mysql_errno
(PHP 4, PHP 5, PECL mysql:1.0)
mysql_errno — Returns the numerical value of the error message from previous MySQL operation
Description
Returns the error number from the last MySQL function.
Errors coming back from the MySQL database backend no longer issue warnings. Instead, use mysql_errno() to retrieve the error code. Note that this function only returns the error code from the most recently executed MySQL function (not including mysql_error() and mysql_errno()), so if you want to use it, make sure you check the value before calling another MySQL function.
Parameters
- 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 by chance no connection is found or established, an E_WARNING level error is generated.
Return Values
Returns the error number from the last MySQL function, or 0 (zero) if no error occurred.
Examples
Example #1 mysql_errno() example
<?php
$link = mysql_connect("localhost", "mysql_user", "mysql_password");
if (!mysql_select_db("nonexistentdb", $link)) {
echo mysql_errno($link) . ": " . mysql_error($link). "\n";
}
mysql_select_db("kossu", $link);
if (!mysql_query("SELECT * FROM nonexistenttable", $link)) {
echo mysql_errno($link) . ": " . mysql_error($link) . "\n";
}
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
1049: Unknown database 'nonexistentdb' 1146: Table 'kossu.nonexistenttable' doesn't exist

Function for creating unique md5 keys in a database. If there are duplets, then a new md5-key will be generated. For your use:
function users_md5create($id){
global $mysql_link;
while ($done==0) {
$md5key = md5(time().($id/2).$loop).md5(time().$id.$loop);
$query = "INSERT INTO users_md5create SET md5key='$md5key', fkey='$id', created=UNIX_TIMESTAMP() ";
$mysql_result = mysql_query($query, $mysql_link);
if(mysql_errno($mysql_link)!=1062) $done=1;
$loop++;
}
return($md5key);
}

Watch out! Although mysql_errno() supposedly returns the error number from the last MySQL function, if you don't specify a link identifier, it assumes the last link *opened*, NOT the last link *used*.
That means you can actually have mysql_errno() blindly ignore the error caused by the last MySQL function if it didn't use the last opened link.
Here's an example:
$link1 = mysql_connect('localhost', 'user1', 'password1');
$link2 = mysql_connect('localhost', 'user2', 'password2');
// do something wrong using the first link
mysql_select_db('nonexistentdb', $link1);
// if you don't specify the link identifier ...
if (mysql_errno()) {
// the error from the last MySQL function is not reported
echo mysql_errno() . ': ' . mysql_error() . "\n";
}

All mysqld error messages are located into the file /usr/local/share/mysql/english/errmsg.txt and listed in numerical order from 999 to 1175. You can change the output language as well, issuing the '-L spanish' option for example. See the manual for more details.
