How can we create a new database by using PHP script?
As we know that PHP provides us the function named mysql_query to create a new database.
Example
To illustrate this we are creating a database named ‘Tutorials’ with the help of PHP script in the following example −
<html> <head> <title>Creating MySQL Database</title> </head> <body> <?php $dbhost = 'localhost:3036'; $dbuser = 'root'; $dbpass = 'rootpassword'; $conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass); if(! $conn ) { die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); } echo 'Connected successfully<br />'; $sql = 'CREATE DATABASE TUTORIALS'; $retval = mysql_query( $sql, $conn ); if(! $retval ) { die('Could not create database: ' . mysql_error()); } echo "Database TUTORIALS created successfully
"; mysql_close($conn); ?> </body> </html>
