Hi Ratish,
Check out the PHP manual or go to: http://in.php.net/function.mysql-connect

They have several explanations for what you want to do. For eg.
<?php
$link = mysql_connect('localhost', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password');
if (!$link) {
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
echo 'Connected successfully';
mysql_close($link);
?>
