Im very new to php and my SQL, and am having trouble connecting to my SQL Database. Im getting the following error when i submit my HTML Form.
mysqli_connect(): (HY000/2003): Can't connect to MySQL server on 'domain name' (111)
Here is my php code:
$name=$_POST['name']; $email=$_POST['email']; $location=$_POST['location']; mysqli_connect("domain_name", "1645347_data", "*password omitted*") or die(mysql_error()); //error getting thrown at this line mysqli_select_db("1645347_data") or die(mysql_error()); mysqli_query("INSERT INTO `data` VALUES ('$name', '$email', '$location')"); Print "Your information has been successfully added to the database."; ?>
As you can see, it is a very simple php script (as I am following a tutorial).
Can anybody see why i would be getting this error? im more than happy to provide additional information if requested.
