Hi all,
Ok I am learning this on my own but I could use some help.
I have started these two pages test.php and config.php here is the code:
test.php
<?
// include the database configuration
include "config.php";
// connect to database
mysql_connect($db["host"],$db["user"],$db["password"],$db["database"]) or
die ("sorry not successful");
// if no connect then exit
exit;
// if connect successful
echo ("you have connected");
?>
config.php
<?
// database config
$db["host"] = "localhost";
$db["user"] = "me";
$db["password"] = "mypassword";
$db["database"] = "mydb";
?>
All I'm trying to do is successfully connect to the database but it returns
"sorry not successful". What have I done wrong?
I have gone straight from the php pocket reference manual and it doesn't
work. Would someone please explain what has happened?
Thanks
J Leonard
