Hey everyone,

It just won't connect, i've tried:

$dbcnx = @mysql_connect('localhost','root','XXXXXX') or die('Unable to
connect ' . mysql_error());
$dbcnx = @mysql_connect('iansroom','root','XXXXXX') or die('Unable to
connect ' . mysql_error());
$dbcnx = @mysql_connect('192.168.2.59','root','XXXXXX') or die('Unable to
connect ' . mysql_error());

and also without the @ symbol, and everytime without the @ symbol i get this
error:

*Fatal error*: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in *
c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\jokelist.php* on line *12

*line 12 is the $dbcnx = @mysq.... line*
*
