You said that you use apache as the username for MySQL - is this something you've configured yourself? If not, it should be root and the password should be blank unless you have also set that? In which case it's missing from your connect command. -- Best regards, Richard Davey http://www.phpcommunity.org/wiki/296.html -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Yes, I have it configured to run as apache. But, as I mentioned, I have no problems accessing the database and running querys against it, it is only the mysql_select_db function that fails.

Agreed, as long as he's not connected so someone can try to connect to the MySQL port. -- Tom -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re[2]: [PHP] Strange problem...
Hello Daniel, $date = $birth_year.-.$birth_month.-.$birth_day; And you can try inserting such kind o' date to a DATETIME field. There's an alternative way: $time = mktime(0,0,0, $birth_month, $birth_day, $birth_year); That would return a unix timestamp that can be written to a BIGINT field and in future returned by using date(m.d.Y, $time) from your sql query. He. DA Thanks Jim. DA but how would i actually do that? I have studied the date() function in the DA manual - but can´t find a way of inserting a set value from user input as a DA valid date.
