Please clarify. What do you mean by "horses mouth"?
There is only one horses mouth for php, and that is php.net. All the
reference material on php.net for mysql_* warns that it is deprecated and
that you should use mysqli_* or PDO_MySQL.
e.g. on http://uk3.php.net/manual/en/intro.mysql.php the introduction to
mysql is as follows:
This extension is deprecated as of PHP 5.5.0, and is not recommended for
writing new code as it will be removed in the future. Instead, either the
mysqli or PDO_MySQL extension should be used. See also the MySQL API
Overview for further help while choosing a MySQL API.
That is what the horses mouth says, so whatever horse you think is
talking to you, it's the wrong horse.
