Trying to count total users with query seperate of forum

On my main page I want to show the total registered users and I am using this:

PHP Code:


		
			
<?

$dbhost = 'localhost';





$conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die ('Error connecting to mysql');



$dbname = 'mustangevolution';

mysql_select_db($dbname);



$res = mysql_query('SELECT COUNT(*) as total FROM user');

$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res);

$total = $res['total'];



echo '<b>' .$total. '</b>';

?>

What am I missing?

You shouldn't post your entire database information, it could be a serious security issue.

instead of putting stress on your user table why not just use the datastore table or just include global.php and all datastore is available to you:)

Then again, calling global.php also adds the what, 6 other queries that he may have no usage whatsoever for.
I recommend doing the datastore query as suggested, to add less overhead.

I can't connect to localhost with this Username/Password, what am I doing wrong?
