How To Create a Table?
If you want to create a table, you can run the CREATE TABLE statement as shown in the following sample script:



include "mysql_connection.php";

$sql = "CREATE TABLE Tech_links ("
. " id INTEGER NOT NULL"
. ", url VARCHAR(80) NOT NULL"
. ", notes VARCHAR(1024)"
. ", counts INTEGER"
. ", time TIMESTAMP DEFAULT sysdate()"
. ")";
if (mysql_query($sql, $con)) {
print("Table Tech_links created.\n");
} else {
print("Table creation failed.\n");
}

mysql_close($con);


Remember that mysql_query() returns TRUE/FALSE on CREATE statements. If you run this script, you will get something like this:
Table Tech_links created.

$comment = 'I want to say: "It\'s a good site! :->"';
$comment = urlencode($comment);
print("

"
."<"a href=\"processing_forms.php?name=Guest&comment=$comment\">"
."It's an excellent site!"<"/a>

");
$comment = 'This visitor said: "It\'s an average site! :-("';

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF ERRORS IN PHP?
Here are three basic types of runtime errors in PHP:

1. Notices: These are trivial, non-critical errors that PHP encounters while executing a script - for example, accessing a variable that has not yet been defined. By default, such errors are not displayed to the user at all - although you can change this default behavior.

2. Warnings: These are more serious errors - for example, attempting to include() a file which does not exist. By default, these errors are displayed to the user, but they do not result in script termination.

3. Fatal errors: These are critical errors - for example, instantiating an object of a non-existent class, or calling a non-existent function. These errors cause the immediate termination of the script, and PHP's default behavior is to display them to the user when they take place.

Internally, these variations are represented by twelve different error types
