Question

I’m trying to create a database. But i get an error while i’m doing.

This is the code :

<?php
$link = mysql_connect("localhost","xxx","xxx")
$db_selected = mysql_select_db("alpMuhendislik",$link);
if (!$db_selected) {
    $sql = 'CREATE DATABASE alpMuhendislik';
    if (mysql_query($sql, $link)) {
        echo "Database alpMuhendislik created successfully\n";
    }
    else {
        echo 'Error creating database: ' . mysql_error() . "\n";
    }
}
?>

And this is the error :

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in …./load_data.php on line 3

I just couldn’t see any problem about syntax. I checked marks and semicolons.

Thanks!

Missing ;:

$link = mysql_connect("localhost","xxx","xxx")
                                             ^^^

“Unexpected something on line x” typically means there’s a problem on line x-1.
