This is the Browser error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in C:\apache\htdocs\cedarintranet\index.php on line 3
This error means that MySQL support is not enabled in your PHP. In PHP 4, this was done automatically. Now you need to enable it yourself when you install. You can tell whether it's enabled by running a phpinfo() statement in your PHP script. This statement outputs a long list of PHP settings. Somewhere in that list, it provides a block of MySQL settings for installations that have MySQL support enabled. If your output doesn't show the MySQL settings, then MySQL support is not enabled.
To enable it on a Windows machine, in your php.ini file, uncomment the "extension" line for mysql. You may need to restart Apache after you edit the php.ini file. Be sure you are making changes in the php.ini file that PHP is using. The output, mentioned above, from phpinfo() shows the path to the php.ini file that PHP is using.

This is my php code: // Connect to the database server $dbcnx = mysql_connect("localhost", "intranet", "1234"); if (!$dbcnx) { echo( "<P>Unable to connect to the " . "database server at this time. Please make use of the contact page.</P>" ); exit(); }
// Select the database if ([EMAIL PROTECTED]("cedarintranet") ) { echo( "<P>Unable to connect to the " . "database server at this time. Please contact webmaster at [EMAIL PROTECTED]</P>" ); exit(); }

Dear Users
I'm havin a problem to connect to MySQL through the use of PHP5. I followed all documentation and none seem to resolve the problem. I'm running WinXP on the computer that I use to develop the apps. Any advice out there that could be of help.
Thanks
