Built on machine and works fine:
PHP 5.0.4
Apache 2.0.53
MySQL Client API version 4.1.7

Running on a server with the code below hanging up unless it's
'remmed' out...:
PHP 4.1.1
Apache 1.3.23
MySQL Client API version 3.23.39

mysql_connect($DBhost,$DBuser,$DBpass) or die("Unable to connect to
database"); // make connection to database
mysql_select_db($DBName) or die("Unable to select database $DBName");
// select database
// if (mysqli_connect_errno())
// {
// echo 'Error: Could not connect to database. Please report this
problem.';
// exit;
// }


Everything on my form worked fine on my development machine with the
newer versions of PHP, MySQL, and Apache. When I ran it on the server
with older versions, my query hung up.

QUESTION: The part that specifically hangs is "if
(mysqli_connect_errno())" of which I have to think something is there
that wasn't in the older versions so... Does anyone know an
equivalent line that will work on the older PHP ??? TIA
