you need to add a ; to every  variable you assign... 
you had:
$host="localhost"
 $user="ray"
 $password="*****"

it should be:

$host="localhost";
$user="ray";
$password="*****";

also i belive a better way to get the result of your query would be

mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass) or die(mysql_error());
