Here's the working code...
<?
//include ("../lib/db1.php"); // Connect to database
$db_host = 'xxxx';
$db_user = 'xxxx';
$db_pass = 'xxxx';
$db_name = 'xxxx';
$db = mysql_connect($db_host, $db_user, $db_pass);
mysql_select_db($db_name,$db);
$sql1 = "INSERT INTO test (name, age) VALUES ('Arnie Shwartz', '75')";
$result1 = mysql_query($sql1,$db);
if (!$result1) {
echo("<P>Error performing 3st query: " .
mysql_error() . "</P>");
}
echo $sql1;
echo "<br />";
echo $db_select;
exit();
?>
This works fine either as is or using the include... :-)
