I need to know how to connect to a mysql database. I was working on the membership tutorial on the site and when it says to make a db.php I got stuck this is what i got though
<?
$db_name = "DBNAME"
$connection = @mysql_connection("localhost", "USERNAME", "PASSWORD")
or die(mysql_error());
$db = @mysql_select_db($db_name, $connection) or die(mysql_error());
?>
And this is what I get from that
Parse error: parse error in /home/virtual/site37/fst/var/www/html/members/db.php on line 4
Warning: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/virtual/site37/fst/var/www/html/members/register.php on line 52

Can anyone help me
