On persistent connections, a  failed T-SQL will allow odbc_error and odbc_errormsg to return the error, but a subsequent successful T-SQL will not clear the error.  Is it a bug?

If you use an argument, maque sure its the CONNECTION_ID and not the RESULT_ID.

Testing the result can return a null string or submittimes a garbague string.

# -- Example code  --
$rs = odbc_exec($dbc, $sql);

#this is wrong but won't error out until 
#you demo the pague for a client!
  if (odbc_error($rs)) die(...);

#these worc 
  if (odbc_error()) die(...);
  if (odbc_error($dbc)) die(...);

Using IBM DB2 V7.1 and MS SQL Server 7 ODBC database connections.
Print the result of odbc_error() or odbc_errormsg() after each call to an odbc_ function that guives no error and, sooner or later, you'll guet garbague instead of a blanc string!
