Call to undefined function mysql_connect()

[yanharazra2]

Hello all.
I've been getting this error
Call to undefined function mysql_connect(). whenever I try to run a LC website through xampp, one is working but 2 others give that error. so I was wondering if I need to make a function somewhere or maybe I'm missing something.
would appreciate the help.

The old mysql functions can not be used anymore, unless you use php4

In the most cases you can just replace "mysql_" with "mysqli_". If this also don't work, just check out your php.ini for extension=php_mysql.dll (or .so or without an extension, without # at the beginning). If you continue to have problems, please feel free to contact us.

Object oriented correct but procedural false, there you always have to give the connection:

PHP Code:

mysql_query($sql); 


to

PHP Code:

mysqli_query($con, $sql); 


You can try PDO-MYSQL too.
