mysql_connect() doesn't work

[Anon]

this is my script:
<? mysql_pconnect("localhost", "root", "") && print "MySQL and PHP work";?>

i get the error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mysql_pconnect() in /var/www/html/testconnect.php on line 1

why. I am almost positive that everything is installed right. Everything is with the latest versions

OOPS!! 🙂 that's what I had at first, but I was just trying different things. That's the problem, with mysql_connect() it doesn't work

hi,because your php is not support with mysql, when you compiled the php,you can add the options --with-mysql to support mysql functions
