Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/pkghost/public_html/php/tutorial.php on line 50

and these are lines 48 and 50:

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM employees");

if($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result)){

Try this instead

$sql="SELECT * FROM employees";
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die($sql."<br />\n".mysql_error());

if($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result)){
