How to connect to database using login?

[sulin]

Hello,

Could someone pls tell me how to connect to a database table in Linux server called 'login' and send userid and password to the table.

you can test out my simple interface at http://tsldesigns.com/login.htm and perhaps save the file to see my code. It is very simple.

The question now is how to do a database connection and insert the userid and password data into the table as a new record.

I need to get this done by this week...Hope someone can suggest something or better still email to [e-mail] the PHP sample script code to do the above.

Thanks so much for your reply.

regards,
Su Lin

Is this the main line?

$this->conn = mysql_connect( $this->db_host, $this->auth_name, $this->auth_pass );
