mysql_connect("localhost", "admin", "1admin") or die (mysql_error());
echo "Connected to MySQL
";
?>
Display:
Connected to MySQL
The mysql_connect function takes three arguments. Server, username, and password. In our example above these arguments were:
- Server - localhost
- Username - admin
- Password - 1admin
The "or die(mysql..." code displays an error message in your browser if --you've probably guessed it -- there is an error in processing the connection! Double-check your username, password, or server if you receive this error.
