Is there a way to connect to two different databases and store the same information in both.

For example.
The person signs up for membership of the site, whilst at the same time automatically signing up for the forum.

I know this would depend on what tables and fields that are needed to have information sent to, but I'm just wondering if it was even possible. Because it would be cool. A lot easier and less trouble for the person signing up to have to do both.

Thanks,

You should be able to create two seperate connections.

$con = mysql_connect(DB1, etc, etc);
$con1 = mysql_connect(DB2, etc, etc);

The sql you create can be used on both handles (con1 & con2)
I.E
mysql_query (QSTRING, handle);

so as long as you pass the handle you should be working under that handles DB.

so to do it on both just call mysql_query twice each with a seperate handle to connect to the seperate DB.
