PHP/SQL question. by dodrian 2008-09-15 06:50:08
I'm trying to connect to a MySQL database in php. I have a user account and am required to use a password when connecting.

I'm using the statement:
$link = mysql_connect($_mysqlHost, $_mysqlUser, $_mysqlPass);

$_mysqlHost is 'localhost', and user/pass are set correctly. I'm getting the error:
Access denied for user 'XXXX'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
But I should be using the password.

Googling led me to think it had something to do with sql.safe_mode, except phpinfo(); says sql.safe_mode is 'off'.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?
