Get current database name - El Forum - 02-05-2010

Hi all,
Is there a function (or code snippet) to return the currently active database name?
I know I can use mysql_db_name, but where do I get the connection ID from?
Cheers,
Gaz.

You don't pass mysql_db_name a connection ID.

However,
Code:
echo $this->db->database;Get current database name - El Forum - 02-05-2010

OK, thanks on both counts :-)
Cheers,
Gaz.
