<?php
$mysqli = @new mysqli('localhost', 'fake_user', 'my_password', 'my_db');
// Works as of PHP 5.2.9 and 5.3.0.
if ($mysqli->connect_error) {
die('Connect Error: ' . $mysqli->connect_error);
}
?>
<?php
$link = @mysqli_connect('localhost', 'fake_user', 'my_password', 'my_db');
if (!$link) {
die('Connect Error: ' . mysqli_connect_error());
}
?>
The above examples will output:
Connect Error: Access denied for user 'fake_user'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
