Question
Saving data MySQL PHP
I am trying to save some data from my website to my database. This works on both my local machine and thorugh my student host:
some php...
$connection = @mysqli_connect('localhost', 'username', 'pw')
or die (mysqli_error());
mysqli_select_db($connection, 'mydatabase')
or die (mysqli_error());
some php....
I have followed all the instruction from:
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-install-linux-apache-mysql-php-lamp-stack-on-ubuntu
and
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-install-and-secure-phpmyadmin-on-ubuntu-12-04
So i have php and mysql installed and I can access my databases through phpmyadmin
I still can't save data to the database through my website using the script listed above.
Any idea what might be the problem?
