ToonMariner Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 ????you are checking in your 1st connect script for a connection that isn't established until you leave the connect script!stick mysql_connect($host,$dbuser,$dbpass) or die(mysql_error());// Select the database.mysql_select_db($dbname) or die(mysql_error());straight after $host = "localhost";$dbuser = "my user name to db is here";$dbpass = "this is where i have typed my pass";$dbname = "my db name is here"; or die("Could not connect.");in your connect script Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
