please make sure that u change the $user, $password, $database according to ur username, password and database name u have created.

lets try with simple code first

go to mysql, create a new database and a table

in this example, i put a new database name is mydb and the table name is mytab

so u try put the code in here ur php and see if it can connect or not

<?php
$conn = mysql_connect("localhost");
mysql_select_db("mydb") or die("error connecting to dbase");

?>

try that..and come back to us to update...........
