You might want to fix that. <code>$database<\/code> and <code>$hostname<\/code> also are expected in the arguments.<\/p>\n<p>Your call to <code>conexion<\/code> will <em>always<\/em> be executed, because <code>my $var<\/code> creates a new variable and initializes it with <code>undef<\/code>\u2014and the negation of <code>undef<\/code> is a true value.<\/p>\n<p>Then you have this statement:<\/p>\n<pre><code>our $result = my $connect-&gt;prepare($id);\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<p><code>my<\/code> creates a new variable <code>$connect<\/code> on which you try to call the method <code>prepare<\/code>.

It is, however, not the same variable, as these variables reside in different scope.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, you are likely to add fields <code>mysqlopen<\/code> and <code>connect<\/code> in the object you are passing around, as this is object data. You can then use this information just like the <code>host<\/code> or <code>database<\/code> fields.<\/p>\n<p>Also, do not call the method <code>conexion<\/code> without an object.
