Partly. I had an error in the location of the include. Ashley corrected 
the rest but it only works with the include. Not as whown below
<?
//include ("../lib/db1.php");    // Connect to database

$db_host = 'biggie';
$db_user = 'root';
$db_pass = 'gu...@#$';
$db_name = 'biblane';

$db_connect = mysql_connect($db_host, $db_user, $db_pass);
$db_select = mysql_select_db($db_name, $db_connect);

$sql1 = "INSERT INTO test (name, age) VALUES ('Arnie Shwartz', '75')";
$result1 = mysql_query($sql1,$db);
if (!$result1) {
  echo("<P>Error performing 1st query: " .
       mysql_error() . "</P>");
  exit();
}
?>
