When I use this for example:
$link = mysql_connect(localhost, 'login', 'password')
or die('connection failed');

Nothing seems to work...
I use a Win32(98) Apache server and php4.0.0 win32 server with mysql dll's loaded, my mysql server is okay and I installed myODBC, but when I try the example on the top I get this in my source:
&quot;<html>
<body>&quot;

And then it's broken off where the <?php ?> script starts...

Please can someone help me

put PHP instructions in .php files in your home servers directory. The HTML will be genearted from PHP output functions Ion Filipski

You need to make sure that httpd.conf is configured correctly for PHP (mime types, directory index, etc). Also, make sure Apache is loading the PHP module.

Then check your php.ini file to make sure that you have mysql configured and enabled.

Remember, MySQL support is automatically included with PHP in the Win32 version, so all you have to do besides the stuff above is download MySQL.

Get back with us if you still have problems.
