Hi Jake,
Your problem appears similar to a problem I had but...
you aren't providing quite enough information..
Are you working as a user on the same local host or
are connecting across a network?
To eliminate a MySQL problem ( so you can concentrate
your efforts on PHP code) try to connect directly from
the command line with MySQL as follows..
#root$ > mysql yourdatabasename -h hostname -u username -p password
You can eliminate -h and -p if your on the same machine without
password.
See if this will connect..
