One thing: the MySQL extension is set for deprecation, so it's best not to start learning it, and instead use the MySQLi or PDO interfaces.

To help diagnose your current problem, you can use mysql_error() on the mysql_query() line in the same way that you use it on the mysql_connect() line.

I'd start with www.php.net

For a tutorial on user authentication with currently not deprecated functions check my signature. I wrote it, so its not an official guide or anything but it might help.
