Along with the other suggestions the other people have made, I would like to suggest that you look at mysql_select_db, and replace mysql_db_query with it.
I have a feeling the scripts you have relied on mysql_db_query for it's database interaction, and as mysql_db_query is now deprecated, it will not work in PHP5.

Deride me if you must. For the past 3 months I've been learning PHP using 4.06, Apache 1.3.20, MySQL 3.23, all running smoothly on Win98. I downloaded a package containing these versions configured to run on windows, so admittedly I didn't have much configuring to do on my own. So far it's been difficult, rewarding and fun. Last week I decided to upgrade to the current package containing PHP 4.2.3, Apache 1.3.27, MySQL 4. No problems with the download and install except now my php pages no longer connect to my database and I'm getting some errors I never got before. I've been able to fix some of the problems but others persist. I understand that I need to read the manuals, check the forums and consult the books I've been using. If I would take more time to do this I'd be better off for it. I have done that to a considerable degree and have learned a lot. But I'm also a little pressed for time and have an exciting website I want to get launched. So now I'm pondering why should I upgrade when what I had was working just fine?
