why is it using localhost?

Here is my connection.php file...

 

<?php

$con = mysql_connect("p50mysql151.secureserver.net", "te****", "*********");
$db = mysql_select_db("texting");

?>

 

But when I attempt to connect, I get this message.

 

Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)

 

Why is the script trying to connect to localhost?  It should be connecting to p50mysql151.secureserver.net, which is what I got from my host.

The posted code does not contain any usage of the mysql_error() function so it is not the code that caused and output the posted error. Either your connection.php file is not being used or there is some other code attempting to connect to the database server or as I wrote, sql.safe_mode might be on.
