Getting slew of errors when running php script

Hello! Curious if anyone could give me a hand. I wrote this PHP
script with makes a simple connection to a mysql database called
firstdb and just pulls back the results and displays on the webpage.

Here is the script.

I appreciate any light that could be shed on the script and why I would
get the errors.

Thank you,

Mike

What are the error-messages you get? (if you post the error messages,
it'll be easier for people to work out the problem then having to go
through your code looking for syntax errors, etc.)

WHERE ARE THE ERRORS?
I appreciate any light that could be shed on the script and why I would

WHERE ARE THE ERRORS? Well, I'll just have to guess what's wrong.
$host = "localhost" ;
This is wrong. Your hostname should be in the .nsa.gov top-level domain.
And if you don't have clearance, they'll kill you.
$user = "root";
Wrong. This should be "Administra tor" or "Al Gore".
$pass = "*******";
Your password is incorrect, and too easy to guess.
//open a persistant connection to the database
mysql_connect() does not open a *PERSISTENT* connection.
$connect = mysql_connect($ host, $user, $pass);

//Select the database
mysql_select_db ("myfirstdb" , $connect);
You don't check whether this worked. Also, it's MyFristDB (as in
the Senator).

//Set and run the query
$sql = "Select Employee_no, Last_name, First_name, Commission from
Sales_Represen tative";
Wrong. This query should be "delete from Sales_Represent ative where Spams_Sent > 0".
$result = mysql_query($sq l, $connect);

$x = mysql_num_rows( $result);

//If the tenth row exists, go straight to it
if ($x >= 10) {
mysql_data_seek ($result, 9);
}

//Return the data from the 10th row
$row = mysql_fetch_arr ay($result);
Print "Employee_n o: " . $row["Employee_N o"] . "<br>\n";
Print "Last_Name: " . $row["Last_Name"] . "<br>\n";
Print "First_Name : " . $row["First_Name "] . "<br>\n";
Print "Commission : " . $row["Commission "];
Isn't "print", not "Print" what you are trying to do here?

How about posting either:

(a) The errors from the script you posted, or
(b) The script that produced these errors.

Because they aren't the same. The one you posted used mysql_connect, and on a
different line number.
Warning: mysql_select_db (): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link
resource in C:\development_ site\Database.p hp on line 16
Because you didn't check for errors on the mysql_pconnect.
Warning: mysql_query(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link
resource in C:\development_ site\Database.p hp on line 20
Because you didn't check for errors on the mysql_pconnect nor on the
mysql_select_db .
Warning: mysql_num_rows( ): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL
result resource in C:\development_ site\Database.p hp on line 22
Because you didn't check for errors on the mysql_pconnect nor on the
mysql_select_db nor on the mysql_query.
Warning: mysql_fetch_arr ay(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL
result resource in C:\development_ site\Database.p hp on line 30
Because you didn't check for errors on the mysql_pconnect nor on the

You haven't got any data so they're all blank.

I recommend fixing these, if necessary by using isset() on the variable
before using its value. But the big problem comes next:
Warning: mysql_pconnect( ) [function.mysql-pconnect]: Access denied for
user 'ODBC'@'localho st' (using password: NO) in
C:\development _site\Database. php on line 13
Here you have a serious problem: you can't connect to your
database. Test the login information using a command-line
client. And you really ought to have a password on your database,
even if it's only accessible via localhost.
Warning: mysql_select_db (): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link
resource in C:\development_ site\Database.p hp on line 16
Your connect failed, so you can't select a database. Fix previous
error first.
Warning: mysql_query(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link
resource in C:\development_ site\Database.p hp on line 20
Your connect failed, so you can't do queries. Fix previous error first.
Warning: mysql_num_rows( ): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL
result resource in C:\development_ site\Database.p hp on line 22
Your query failed, so you didn't get a result. Fix previous error first.
Warning: mysql_fetch_arr ay(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL
result resource in C:\development_ site\Database.p hp on line 30
Your query failed, so you didn't get a result. Fix previous error first.

Indeed. PHP is case-insensitive for function names. But case-sensitive
for variable names.
P.S. Please fix your signature. It should start dash-dash-space to be
automatically trimmed.
