if you have any idea or any thing more required for php connectivity plz suggest

Answer 1

I check that $ sign in the password is creating problem in my case.Please Do not use $ or any other special Character that may create problem. In my case $ sign in password was creating problem

Answer 2

This could simply be caused by an incorrect password. In your $dbpass, is the space at the end supposed to be there? That extra space before the close " would add a space to the end of the password, causing it to be a different password.

Answer 3

I am wondering if you are opening a connection. I notice the line, where it is closing a connection but not sure if you have opened a connection? Where is is your execute statement for the Insert Query?

Thanks
