Re: How to connect from PHP to mysql?

[Sarabjit Singh]

You can insert PHP code in your webpage within the tag - <?php ... ?>

To connect to a datase server, use:
$connectionName=mysql_connect($hsotName,$userName,$password);

To select a databse, use:
mysql_select_db($databaseName,$connectionName);

To send a query, use:
$queryResult=mysql_query($query);

To collect and process results, use:
$result=mysql_result($queryResult, $rowNumber, $columnName);

Complete PHP documentation is available at: http://www.php.net/quickref.php
