Hmm.. unless you typed that in rather than copied pasted,
there's something really odd going on. Anyway, it looks like
you're trying to select stuff from the table phpbook, but
you haven't selected a database yet. Maybe you're intending
to do a SHOW TABLES?
Unknown database
Just a hunch: Have you actually CREATEd the database? That is,
have you done a CREATE DATABASE phpbook? Note that it's
legal to grant permissions on databases that haven't been
created yet.
