Problem with DB connection


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hello there! I'm new to this forum and I'm new to PHP coding also. I wrote something that doesn't make exactly what I thought it will. Can you give me a hand please. There we go:
Code: [Select] <?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);

$Host = "***";
$User = "***";
$PassWord = "****";
$DataBaseName = "***";
$TableName = "products";

mysql_connect($Host, $User, $PassWord);
mysql_select_db($DataBaseName);

if (isset($_GET['id'])) {
$id = (int)$_GET['id'];
// $select = "SELECT id FROM" . $TableName;
if ($id > 0) {

$select = "select description from" . $TableName . "WHERE id = " . $id;
$result = mysql_query($select);
echo $result;
echo $id;
}

else {
echo "id not > 0";

}
}
else {
echo "ID not set;
}
?>
<p><a href="proba.php?id=1" name="id=1"> Find out more about it. </a></p>
<a href="proba.php?id=2" name="id=2"> Find out more about it. </a></p>
<a href="proba.php?id=3" name="id=3"> Find out more about it. </a></p>
That's a testing page only. What happens here is that only the ID is displayed.
The funny thing is when i add this code to the original page, my apache gives errors on the localhost and i get Quote Premature end of script headers. Obviously I'm doing something wrong, but I don't know what it is. oh, when i run this code on the original page but remove the password, apache is not shoting..
