Sterling, it appears Shawn is using MySQL, not PostgreSQL.  That said,
Shawn, have a look here :

  http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mysql.php

You'll see a list of MySQL functions, which are in your snippet below.
PHP functions such as :

  mysql_connect, mysql_select_db, mysql_query, mysql_fetch_array ...

Attend each manual page for further information on each function and note
the examples.  This tutorial may help :

  http://php.vamsi.net/mysql/
  http://www.sqlcourse.com/

Look around www.zend.com, php.faqts.com, www.phpbuilder.com and
www.devshed.com for a few more goodies, as well as many many other sites!  
Also note that when you view tutorials, they are not the only way.  Also
note the difference between SQL and PHP.  

Regards,
Philip
