Inflict Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Hi, I tried the following in a .php file: <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE> PHP Testing </TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <font size="1" face="Verdana"> <?php $mysqli = mysqli("localhost", "localuser", "localpass", "database"); if (mysqli_connect_errno()) { printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error()); exit(); } else { printf("Host information: %s\n", mysqli_get_host_info($mysqli)); } ?> </font> </BODY> </HTML> I did this to check if mySQL was functioning correctly with PHP. The problem is that when I load the .php file in Internet Explorer, the page shows up blank. The problem seems to be from the line $mysqli = mysqli("localhost", "localuser", "localpass", "database"); which used the mysqli(); function. When I view the source code for the web page, it shows everything after and including the line $mysqli = mysqli("localhost", "localuser", "localpass", "database"); blank. I recently installed mysqli by allowing its extension in the php.ini file and restarting the server. I am using MySQL 5.0 with PHP 5.2.1 and Apache HTTP Server 2.2.4 on Vista Ultimate. PHP seems to be working as I did some forms with it and also tested the phpinfo(); function. Perhaps I did not install mysqli correctly? I don't know what to do and I'm in shambles. I've been researching this all day. Can anyone help me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wildbug Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Disclaimer: I usually use the mysql_* functions, so I'm not intimately familiar with the mysqli* package. However, it doesn't look like there is a mysqli() function. Don't you mean mysqli_connect() instead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
