Hi try http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/PHP/SoothinglySeamless/page1.html
for good tutorials on PHP and MySQL, although biased toward Unix, I suppose
it should work in a similar way on IIS. Maybe wrong?!

----snip----------------------------
<?

$dbuser = 'root';

$dbhost = 'localhost';

$dbpass = 'password';

$dbname = 'test2';

$dbtble = 'books';

$mysql_link = mysql_connect($dbhost,$dbuser,$dbpass);

$column = mysql_list_fields($dbname,$dbtble,$mysql_link);

for($i=0; $i< mysql_num_fields($column); $i++ )
{
print mysql_field_name($column,$i )."<br>";
}

?>

Hi all
Iam new to php and iam learning that from scratch.I
came across a problem in connecting mysql from php
script.I run php in windows2000 under IIS configured
to personal web server.I have installed mysql
with server and client and both are running in the
same machine(ofcourse, i can you use the ipaddress of
localhost).I didn't set any username or password with
mysql.

This is my php script:
$link=mysql_connect("localhost");
if($link)
die("Couldn't connect to mysql".mysql_error() );
print "Successfully connected to server";

when i execute this program iam getting the following
message:
Couldn't connect to mysql

Anyone please help me as this is very urgent.

thanks in advance
