Hey, just an aside for everyone.
I always had my DB close statement as the last line of my scripts. Then one
day, everything stopped working properly. Why?
Seems right -- when you're done you're done -- right? Wrong. PHP does plenty
of "stuff" after your script is finished.
Remember -- if you use database-base sessions, use session_write_close
BEFORE you close your DB connection. And you probably want to use
session_write_close before any header redirects as well to eliminate timing
issues.
