Not Connect to database

Anon

Dear all,

My webpage is update in every 10 seconds. However, my linux server sometimes has to be restarted. When the server restarts, my webpage cannot connect the server and prompts error page. Then the webpage is no longer update again. Anyway, I would like to make webpage with blackground black and still connect the server in every 10 second until the server become normal.

Please give me a helping hand, thanks.

Sincerely yours,
Simon

Add the code around your connect statement to send the page that you want to see. Something like:

<?php
$db = @connect($host, $user, $pass);

if (!$db) {
// display black page with refresh tag
exit();
}

// display normal page
?>

The @ supresses the error that your connect is going to cause you can display the error if you want it may be helpful.

Dear Rob,

after I add these codes, the webpage only displays white page only with the html code as follows

!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HEAD>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=big5"></HEAD>
<BODY></BODY>

although connect to the server, why?

Please give me help thanks

Simon,

Post the relevent sections of your code so I can see what is happening.

As for the refresh tag, if I remember correctly:

Where 10 is the seconds before refresh, and URL is the URL to refresh to.
