My problem is a little bit different from most. My executables works fine in browsers like Internet Explorer but does not work in NuSphere PhpED's browser; I get the following errors like the following: Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect(). I want to use the debugger but I can’t because of the errors.
Please help!

This usually means that the MySQL PHP extension isn't loaded. Create a php file with phpinfo(); in it, its output should included references to mysql. If not, check your php.ini file (the phpinfo output will tell you where to find it) and make sure that there is a line extension=php_mysql.dll (or .so if you're on linux) in the file. If you made any changes to it you'll have to restart the webserver.

I checked the items you told me to check and they seem fine. I did see a reference to mysql and mysqli amd the php.ini file has the extension for mysql. Below is what I found.


extension=php_msql.dll
extension=php_mysql.dll
extension=php_mysqli.dll

I am using Windows XP.

The fact that you are using XP has nothing to do with it
Small question: is there a difference between where you tested the script with phpinfo() and your actual script? FYI PHP will use a different INI file when running scripts from the command line and/or webserver. I'm just asking because I can't think of any other reason the "undefined error" pops up when the extensions are loaded.

1. php.ini is in C:\php\php.ini
2. phpinfo() is in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs
3. The way I run the php exe. is in my Internet Explorer I type: http://localhost/phpinfo.php

Looks like you did not configure PhpED to use this php. By default it comes with its own php which is 4.4.8/5.2.6 at the moment.
It sholdn't be that hard to type phpinfo() in the IDE and run it.
