Using php to connect to mysql using mod_dbd

[Qybayvqje]

I would like to use mod_dbd to implement connection pooling for my php application. I am able to define the mod_dbd module for apache and I can see the connections that it is opening, but I am not able to "hook on" those connections with my php code. I was trying mysql_connect with parameters and without as well as mysql_pconnect.Welcome any advice,Ariel
