Could someone please explain to me how to connect to a MySQL Database?

I use the following code but I used the real password, and not “12345678”:

But it gives me this error message:

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user ‘root’@’localhost’ (using password: YES) in C:\xampp\xampp\htdocs\mysql.php on line 3 Access denied for user ‘root’@’localhost’ (using password: YES)

What does this mean?

Answer #1

ok, it wouldn’t let me put the code that I use in :/ I can FunMail it to the person that can help.

Answer #2

Are you running a web-server off your computer?

Answer #3

Aw, I don’t think I will have time to find out but you can message it to me if you want still.

Answer #4

Before you can use MySQL at all, you need to create a database for yourself on your Control Panel.
