Re: [PHP-DB] Weird Problem In mysql_connect(); From: Chris Hobbs (chobbs <email protected>)

JH has it right - your function has no idea what $host, $user, and $pass
are, because they're out of scope. Add the global statements that
Jonathan suggested inside your dbConnect function, and all will be well.
