This is working for me.
---------------------------
define('db_host','localhost');
define('db_name','mydb') ;
define('db_user','use1') ;
define('db_pass','pwd1') ;
$h = @mysql_pconnect(db_host,db_user,db_pass);
if($h)
mysql_select_db (db_name) or die ("could not select db");;

Error line 43 (or 42 if 43 commented out and 42 uncommented)
38: define("mysql_password", "did you think");
39: define("mysql_user", 'i would say this');
40:
41: // Initialize MySQL database
42: // $h =
mysql_connect('localhost',constant("mysql_user"),constant("mysql_password"))
;
43: $h = mysql_connect('localhost',mysql_user,mysql_password);
44: mysql_select_db('mjec_mjecnet', $h);
