Hello i’m currently trying to create a blog for a school project and this is the code i’ve come up with.

<html>
<?php
$connection['host'] = '127.0.0.1';
$connection['user'] = 'root';
$connection['password'] = 'ascent';
$connection['webdb'] = 'login';
$connection['newstable'] = 'news';

if (isset($_GET['newsid']))
{
    $id = (int)$_GET['newsid'];
    connect::selectDB('webdb');

    $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM news WHERE id='".$id."'");
    $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result); ?>
    <div class='box_two_title'><?php echo $row['title']; ?></div>

    <?php 
    Some cool way to post the "body" row here.
    ?>
</html>

Basicly i just want it to post the news on the website, i’ve loaned a bit of code from here and there and there’s a couple of errors whenever i try. Help is greatly appreciated. 🙂

    I have seen your code actually there are some errors in your code so firstly you have to connect with mysql database connection and then select DB. i am giving you the correct code so try this definitely it will help to create your blog.

    <html>
<?php
$connection['host'] = '127.0.0.1';
$connection['user'] = 'root';
$connection['password'] = 'ascent';
$connection['webdb'] = 'login';
$connection['newstable'] = 'news'; 
if (isset($_GET['newsid']))
{
//code to set database connection
$link = mysql_connect($connection['host'], $connection['user'], $connection['password']);
if (!$link) {
    die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
// make login the current db
$db_selected = mysql_select_db($connection['webdb'], $link);
if (!$db_selected) {
    die ('Can\'t use db : ' . mysql_error());
}
//get news id
$id = (int)$_GET['newsid'];
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM news WHERE id='".$id."'");
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result); ?>
<div class='box_two_title'><?php echo $row['title']; ?></div>
<?php //    Some cool way to post the "body" row here. } ?> </html>
