Use php predefined functions use for connectivity with databases, eg. mysqli_connect(); How to use- <?php $con = mysqli_connect("localhost","my_user","my_password","my_db"); // Check connection if (mysqli_connect_errno()) { echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysqli_connect_error(); } ?>

@abdul, So what? Now start using mysqli 😉 It's more easy as it takes everything ( needs for the connection) as in arguments.

For mysql use php functions mysql_connect() and mysql_select_db(); but I recommend you to use mysqli() because mysql is not supported in newer versions of php. See this code 👇👇👇👇 https://code.sololearn.com/wd9OJHt3Ml9d/?ref=app
