Yes, that was the problem! With reverse order now it works. But it is strange... In the "create table" script I must use reverse order too and I guess (almost) everywhere with "mysqli". -

I've tried to remove $dbc from "mysqli_query" and "mysqli_select" (i thought that's the problem), then I get this: Successfully connected to MySQL! Warning: mysqli_query() expects at least 2 parameters, 1 given in D:\wamp\www\PHP_for_the_web_EBOOK\ch12_4th_edition\create_database.php on line 18 Could not create the database because: .

Here is the code, what i'm using: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Create the Database</title> </head> <body> <?php // Script 12.3 - create_db.php /* This script connects to the MySQL server. It also creates and selects the database. */ // Attempt to connect to MySQL and print out messages: if ($dbc = @mysqli_connect('localhost', 'root', 'mypassword')) { print '<p>Successfully connected to MySQL!</p>'; // Try to create the database: if (@mysqli_query('CREATE DATABASE myblog', $dbc)) { print '<p>The database has been created!</p>'; } else { // Could not create it. print '<p style="color: red;">Could not create the database because:<br />' . mysqli_error($dbc) . '.</p>'; } // Try to select the database: if (@mysqli_select_db('myblog', $dbc)) { print '<p>The database has been selected!</p>'; } else { print '<p style="color: red;">Could not select the database because:<br />' . mysqli_error($dbc) . '.</p>'; } mysqli_close($dbc); // Close the connection. } else { print '<p style="color: red;">Could not connect to MySQL:<br />' . mysqli_error() . '.</p>'; } ?> </body> </html> And here is the result, what I get in the browser: Successfully connected to MySQL! Could not create the database because: . Could not select the database because: . The code is exatcly the same, as in the downloadable script 12.3, but I've replaced the "mysql" to "mysqli". With mysqli the database isn't created, but with the old mysql it is. (the password and the username for the connection is correct). ...and i don't get any error report. Thanks for helping!
