Mysql Class.

<?php

/*

This class holds all the functions needed for basic mysql database access.

functions within this class are.

    the constructor. mysql_dbase which is called with database name, hostname, username, and password. or they can be set to be defaults, The dbname default has to be left as test for internal reasons. this means when creating a new instance of this class the minimum call is normally: $inst=new mysql_dbase("dbname"); unless you are creating a database. in which you can leave the name blank.

All functions will halt processing and display an error message in the browser on a fault in any of the commands.

    connect()			: no options just creates the connection 
 				  to the database.
    use_db(name)		: Change the current database to the one named.
    make_db(name)		: Creates a new database with the given name.
    drop_db(name)		: Drops the database with the given name.
				  Note: this function does not seek confirmation
				  and is none recoverable.
    do_query(query)		: Performs the given query and will return the
				  number of rows affected or returned for each
				  query.
    get_data(type)		: Returns an array of data base on the type
     				  supplied. A is associative, N is numeric, or
				  B for both.
    close_db() 			: Closes the database connection.
