hi, I found an e-book in the net about php and mysql and with its sample program I am trying to test whether I have mysql working correctly or not. the following program gives error message. why? <html> <head><title>Test MySQL</title></head> <body> <!-- mysql_up.php --> <?php3 $host=”localhost”; $user=”root”; $password=””; mysql_connect($host,$user,$password); $sql=”show status”; $result = mysql_query($sql); if ($result == 0) echo “<b>Error “ . mysql_errno() . “: “ . mysql_error() . “</b>”; else { ?> <!-- Table that displays the results --> <table border=”1”> <tr><td><b>Variable_name</b></td><td><b>Value</b> </td></tr> <?php3 for ($i = 0; $i < mysql_num_rows($result); $i++) { echo “<TR>”; $row_array = mysql_fetch_row($result); for ($j = 0; $j < mysql_num_fields($result); $j++) { echo “<TD>” . $row_array[$j] . “</td>”; } echo “</tr>”; } ?> </table> <?php3 } ?> </body></html>
