This was supposed to be: Using error_reporting = E_ALL will make your code more compatible with other php installations. No more "undefined" warnings and such.... Good night. Hi found the problem. My extension_dir was not set and also the php.ini was not set to extension = php_mysql.dll... you can go "duhu..." now if you like :-) Thanks for everyone's input. I must say it also helped me quite a lot switching these ON error_reporting = E_ALL display_errors = On display_startup_errors = On Discovery Holdings Limited <moderators note - please remove long footers>
