The book I'm working with (PHP & MySQL Web Dev, Welling/Thompson)
specifically defines the 'new mysqli' syntax. So I'm guessing I don't
have something configured right?
If one works the other should too. Your code here looks fine according
to the manual (http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysqli-connect.php)
- can you send us exactly what you have?
OK, here's what I've got, cut and pasted directly out of the script:
********************************************
<body>
<?php
echo('Today is... ' . date('l, F dS Y. ').'<br>' );
?>
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors','On');
?>
<?php
$db=new mysqli("localhost","whil","secret","test");
echo '$db is:'.$db.':';
$conn = mysqli_connect("localhost","whil","secret","test");
echo '$conn is:'.$conn.':';
?>
</body>
********************************************
1. If I comment out the $db and echo $db lines, the next two lines,
$conn and echo $conn generate the following:
Today is... Monday, August 27th 2007.
$conn is:Object id #1:
2. If I remove the $db and echo $db comments, I get the following:
Today is... Monday, August 27th 2007.
Fatal error: Call to undefined function new mysqli() in
index_listtest.php on line 17
I'm soooooooooo puzzled. :)
