Hi Horalia.

Have you run the phpinfo() function to see what you have installed and
how it's configured?  if not, make a php file containing only this line:

<? phpinfo(); ?>

then study the result in a web browser.  if you need help deciphering it,
post (pieces of the) the result here...  or post a url to your phpinfo()
page so we can take a look.

You want to start with debugging the basics.  questions: is the php
program you have even trying to connect to the server?  is it giving any
error messages on the page or in the logs?  if the web server and db
server on different machines can you see any db traffic at all moving
between them with packet sniffer?  are their any interesting logs on the
db server?
