Chris, Not sure what your problem is, I couldn't determine as I read your email. Your code looks fine, I recently upgrade mysql to 4.1.7 and php couldn't open the database. I guess this is a bug, but not sure if it a php or mysql bug.
Anyway, check the mysql forum page at www.mysql.com under the install cat., I have posted this issue and there is allot of respond back. ed -----Original Message----- From: Chris Hewitt [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 30, 2004 3:25 To: PHP Install List Subject: Re: [PHP-INSTALL] Inserting data into mySQL...?
