[SOLVED] Mysql Warnings

[me102]

Hello I have a script thats checks to see if I am able to connect to the database or not. If I am unable to it should display an image called refused and if I am able to connect it should display the accept image. Everything works fine in my script but I cant seem to get ride of my mysql warning saying its unable to connect to the database.

 

Heres my code

     

$connect = mysql_connect($showcart['mysql_host'],$showcart['mysql_username'],$showcart['mysql_password']);
       if(!$connect){
$tconnect = "<img src=\"images/refuse.png\">";
       }else{
         $tconnect = "<img src=\"images/accept.png\">";
       }

 

I just need the warnings to go away if the script cant connect to the database. Any ideas?

Thank you.

Using the @ to suppress errors also prevents those errors from being logged, which prevents a record of problems so you don't know if, when, or why something on your site is failing.

 

The display_errors setting should be set to OFF on a live server so that errors continue to be logged so you have a record of problems so you can find and fix them.

Oh, I wasn't aware it didn't log them.  Learn something new every day.
