    PHP Page and Database Not Interfacing

    Our hosting company's server went down a few days ago. After they fixed
    it, our PHP Page and Database are not interfacing. They are not
    believing me that I have done nothing on my end in several months with
    uploading new files or doing anything with the database, insisting I
    have to fix this myself. I am somewhat adept at html, but had a friend
    get me started on the database -- then I took over, entering new data,
    revising fields, but know nothing of what is done before that.

    I will be happy to attach to an email to you the php file and a screen
    shot of the database summary page (that appears after using PHPMyAdmin
    to enter the database).
    To protect your email address, you can go to our website:

    carolwilsongall ery.com

    and send an email on this subject. I'll respond with the attachments.
    And I promise to post the solution here after we are done.

    I'm quite sure the solution is very simple, and an expert would be able
    to tell me exactly what to do in a few minutes.

    Thanking you in advance.

    What would be easier is for you to just post the error messages you are
    getting (making sure you are you checking mysql_error() after every DB
    call), and a stripped-down version of the code you are using.
