While trying to connect to the mysqll database with php, I use the following file: <?php /* Program: mysql_up.php * Desc: Connects to MySQL Server and * outputs settings. */ echo "<html> <head><title>Test MySQL</title></head> <body>"; $host="PHP-AND-MYSQL"; $user="root"; $password="Britt9906"; $cxn = mysqli_connect($host,$user,$password); $sql="SHOW STATUS"; $result = mysqli_query($cxn,$sql); if($result == false) { echo "<h4>Error: ".mysqli_error($cxn)."</h4>"; } else { /* Table that displays the results */ echo "<table border='1'> <tr><th>Variable_name</th> <th>Value</th></tr>"; for($i = 0; $i < mysqli_num_rows($result); $i++) { echo "<tr>"; $row_array = mysqli_fetch_row($result); for($j = 0;$j < mysqli_num_fields($result);$j++) { echo "<td>".$row_array[$j]."</td>\n"; } } echo "</table>"; } ?> </body></html> When I access this file I I get "Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysqli_connect() in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\mysql_up.php on line 13" Not sure what is wrong... I'm pretty new to all this and grabbed this out of a book. Thanks for the help! Jacob Bergman Network Technician Pullman School District #267 (509) 432-4012 jbergman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
