Hi Ivan and the others,
I realized my mistake, it was a slight confusion.
Actually no function like mysql_result exists. It was mysql_query
and I mistook it for mysql_result. The script works now and can
successfully create the tables, the script below now works :
<?php
$db = mysql_connect("localhost","myusername","mypass");
mysql_select_db("mydatabase",$db);
$sql = "CREATE TABLE computers (Email TEXT not null , Username TEXT not null ,
Password TEXT not null )";
mysql_query($sql,$db); //Now it works because it was not mysql_result
echo "<B>DONE!</B>";
?>
Thanks anyway, you could do so many functions that phpMyAdmin does
when you wanted your PHP script to automatically do that using the above
code snip.
Ivan, I think you've not configured PHP properly on your windows system if the
above script doesn't run (after you've created a database called mydatabase).

Joel: I had the same problem you did, the script isn't wrong it's just
that even though the PHP manual says to use the sintax you used, the
actual sintax for mysql_select_db and for mysql_query or mysql_result
is:
mysql_select_db(string db_name)
mysql_query(string query_string)
mysql_result(string query_string)
At least that's how it worked for me.
Later.
Iván

Asunto: [PHP-WIN] Why doesn't this work?
I'm trying to create table in a database using PHP with MySQL. I want
the script to do it on its own, I tried but couldn't get it to work. The
script is below : <?php $db =
mysql_connect("localhost","myusername","mypass");
mysql_select_db("sitesko2",$db);
$sql = "CREATE TABLE computers (Email TEXT not null , Username TEXT not
null , Password TEXT not null )"; mysql_result($sql,$db); echo
"<B>DONE!</B>"; ?>
Please let me know whats going wrong in that.
Thanks,
