   Opens a persistent database connection.

  <para>
   This function is much like
   <function>odbc_connect</function>, except that the connection is
   not really closed when the script has finished.  Future requests
   for a connection with the same <parameter>dsn</parameter>,
   <parameter>user</parameter>, <parameter>password</parameter>
   combination (via <function>odbc_connect</function> and
   <function>odbc_pconnect</function>) can reuse the persistent
   connection.
