Hi all,

I just downloaded the .zip file of all the files created in Kevin Yank's article, Building a Database-Driven Web Site Using PHP & MySQL. I modified jokes.php a little bit, but not by much. Since the file is pretty big, I have placed it on the web at http://justforwebmasters.com/words.zip.

You can see what errors the file is giving at: http://justforwebmasters.com/dictionary/admin/words.php.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Warm regards,

Corbb, welcome to Webmaster-Forums.

Generally any time you see an error like the one you are getting is because it can't get to your mysql database. Either the password, path, or user name is incorrect.

mairving,

First off, thanks for your reply.

However, my database name, table name, username, and password are all correct.

Any other ideas anybody?

Did you fix it? I don't see any PHP or mySQL errors.

Hi Mark,

I meant to reply and inform everybody that I did fix it.

The problem was that I didn't name my table correctly. (Supid me Smiling ).

Thanks for your reply.
