Question

In the following code I see echo1 statement, after which I do not see anything printed on the UI.The username and password is correct. But PHP doesn’t seem to connect to MySQL. Don’t even see the die statement what am I doing wrong. After mysql_connect is encountered the rest of the code doesn’t work:

<?php    
echo "echo1==========";
$con = mysql_connect("localhost","root", "xxxx123") or die("Error connecting to database");
echo "+++++++++ echo2";
echo $con;
mysql_close($con);
  ?>
