== Syntax ==
  int metaError(
      optional int $errorNumber
      )
</WRAP>
===== Description =====
The function ''metaError()'' converts a database-specific error number into a portable number. This is done by querying the driver error-handling function and converting the error. 

If the database does not support the function then the value returned is always 0.  

If no parameter is provided, the function returns the portable error number from the last error.

===== Usage =====
<code php>
/*
 * Connection to MySQL database assumed
 */

/*
 * Send MySQL error 1004, 'DB_ERROR_CANNOT_CREATE'
 */

$m = $db->MetaError(1004);

/*
 * value of $m is -15, send it to metaErrorMsg()
 */
$s = $db->metaErrorMsg($m);

print $s

/*
 * returns 'can not create'
 */
