Description:
using php5 i can't seem to create a persistent connection to the mysqli db..

i can get a persistent connection to the mysql db

mysqli is needed as it gives me the transactional processing functions..

(not sure if the issue is mysql or php!!!!!)

How to repeat:
set up a test web page using apache/php5 and mysql4.1.3

try to set up php.ini/test web page to establish a persistent mysqli connection

Suggested fix:
support persistent connections with mysqli

(or at least document how to create the persistent connections)

This is not a mysql bug, it's php releated. 
 
mysqli connect doesn't support persistent connections anymore. We are working on an solution 
which can be used also without Apache.
