Answer / asheesh
database connection was not established yet that's why this
error is occuring.
$con=mysql_connect("localhost","root","password") or die
(mysql_error());
$link=mysql_select_db('test',$con);
if(!$link)
{
die(mysql_error());
}
"root" is the user name
"test" is the database name

Answer / ritu
First you have to make a database connection. coding is below mention:
first u have to create a connection to server like:
mysql_connect("localhost","root","");
then select the database like:
mysql_select_db("database_name");
localhost is default server name.
root is default user name.
"" is default password. it means password is blank.
