Hi, the simplicity of the site seems great. Tried the following without success.
Am I missing a trick or are there no short cuts?
<?php
$user_name="root";
$password="";
$database="moviesite";
$server="127.0.0.1";
$db_handle=mysql_connect($server,$user_name,$password);
$db_found=mysql_select_db($database,$db_handle);
if($db_found){
print "Database Found!";
SELECT movie_typ
e,
movie_name
FROM tb_movie;
}
else{
print "Database NOT found";
mysql_close($db_handle);
}
?>

HI,
I found a pretty good MySQL tutorial for absolute beginers,
WikiHow MySQL
It's on Wiki How, Its shows you how to Create Databases in MySQL Terminal (Command Line), This is actualy easier than the GUI.
Before this Tutorial, I had no @#!*ing clue how to use SQL.
PLEASE check it out if you lost and considering giving up!!
