genzedu777 Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Hi, I have a question. Can I actually use windows hosting on .php files, or .php files are only suitable to linux domain? Currently I am practicing some php files in the windows domain and I have received a message stated 'no database selected'. However I have definitely created the database, are there any other reasons which may cause this problem? Thanks <?php echo '<select name="race" id="race"> <option value="">--Please select one--</option>'; $dbc = mysql_connect(111', '111', '111', '111') or die(mysql_error()); $query = ("SELECT * FROM race ORDER BY race_id ASC"); $sql = mysql_query($query, $dbc) or die(mysql_error()); while($data = mysql_fetch_array($sql)) { echo'<option value="'.$data['race_id'].'">'.$data['race_name'].'</option>'; } echo '</select><br/>'; mysql_close($dbc); ?> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
requinix Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Yes, you can use PHP anywhere it's been installed. Yes, PHP can be installed on Windows. After connecting you need to select a database to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
