Resource IDs in php
I've been trying to figure this out, see if anyone here knows. I am trying to pass a resource ID from one script to another (like a mysql query process id, but for something else). It can't be sent as a urlencoded string, because you can't urlencode a resource.
Any ideas?

why do you need to do this? Most times opening two connections isn't going to be a problem as long as you close one before opening the next. Otherwise try to consolidate scripts or use require_once() or include() to load both scripts at once. Maybe with a bit more detail I could be more help

The mysql item has an index number? If so use that: view.php?id=1234 and on view: select * from name where id='$_GET[id]';
(be sure to do some checks first, like id is actually a number ...)
If thats not it, some more details would be helpful

I am trying to use php to generate an MSN web client. I have found a script to handle the actual connection, but sending messages to users seems to be a problem.
The resource ID is for an fsockopen handle which is the MSN connection.

One (non-ideal) way to deal with this would be to write the resource object to a local temp file and then get the other script to read it.
