Name
mysql_connect
Synopsis
msql_connect($hostname); mysql_connect($hostname); mysql_connect($hostname, $username); mysql_connect($hostname, $username, $password);
Creates a connection with the mSQL/MySQL database server at
hostname
. A connection to the server on the local
host is made with m(y)sql_connect(“localhost”). If no
connection exists at the time of the first call to
m(y)sql
, a connection is automatically made to the
localhost. With MySQL an optional username or username/password
combination may be given. If PHP is being run in its enhanced
security mode (called SAFE MODE
), the username
must be either the owner of the HTML document or the owner of the web
server process.
