It *SHOULD* be simple

include('DB.php');

if you have PEAR installed right. Otherwise PEAR::DB can't find and load it's
connectors and fails immediately at DB::connect().

You understand it wrong. Go to MySQL website and study the difference between
mysql and mysqli extensions. It is not a PHP related discussion.

As expected - PEAR::DB can't load proper connector.
