Need hep with mysql function

Hi, I encountered a problem that I have never seen in my 3 years of using php and mysql. Yesterday, I installed MySql, php5, and apache2 on my new laptop. php5 worked fine with apache2, and MySql was working fine on its own. But when I tried to connect to MySql database, I get a strange error message: "Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mysql_connect()". I thought this is very strange since mysql_connect() is a built-in function in php5. How can it be an undefined function? Does anyone know what is going on?
