mysql_connect() is a php function that is included when installing php with mysql support. When compiling php one needs to specify --with-mysql, maybe this wasn't specified by the php package you are using. If you make a file with the phpinfo() command in it, that will show you whether php has mysql support, it will show the compile string that includes --with-mysql and have a table with information about mysql further down the page.
You can make a new file, named something like info.php that looks like this: <?php phpinfo(); ?> Drop that into your web folder and the go to it in your browser. Your error sounds like you'll see that you don't have mysql support compiled into your php module. You'll need to find a different php package that includes the correct options or if you compiled it, recompile it with the mysql options. I have used the easyphp software package on windows, and I know others here have too. It's available from http://www.easyphp.org/ and should work out of the box with most php/mysql scripts.
