Hello everyone!🙂

I’m new to PHP and MySQL. I’ll tell you that now. I got a new website recently and am working on the registration. I have all of my code written. I used these tutorials.  
[http://www.tutorialized.com/tutorial/Advanced-PHP-MySQL-User-Membership-Script-Part-1/8776](http://www.tutorialized.com/tutorial/Advanced-PHP-MySQL-User-Membership-Script-Part-1/8776)  
[http://www.tutorialized.com/tutorial/Advanced-PHP-MySQL-User-Membership-Script-Part-2/8799](http://www.tutorialized.com/tutorial/Advanced-PHP-MySQL-User-Membership-Script-Part-2/8799)

I tested it out to no avail. I tried to register and I get this error

Here is my PHP code.

```php

<?php 
$server = "localhost"; 
$dbuser = "dbusername"; 
$dbpass = "dbpass"; 
$dbname = "dbname"; 
 
mysql_connect($server,$dbuser,$dbpass) or die ("Could not establish connection"); 
//isn't this where it connects? 
 
mysql_select_db($dbname); 
$user = $_REQUEST['username']; 
$pass = $_REQUEST['password']; 
$email = $_REQUEST['email']; 
$biography = $_REQUEST['biography']; 
$user=strip_tags($user); 
$pass=strip_tags($pass); 
$email=strip_tags($email);0 
$biography=strip_tags($biography); 
$user=str_replace(" ","",$user); 
$pass=str_replace(" ","",$pass); 
$email=str_replace(" ","",$email); 
$user=str_replace("%20","",$user); 
$pass=str_replace("%20","",$pass); 
$email=str_replace("%20","",$email); 
$user=addslashes($user); 
$pass=addslashes($pass); 
$email=addslashes($email); 
$biography=addslashes($biography); 
$minuser_len = 6; 
$minpass_len = 6; 
 
if(strlen($user) < $minuser_len || strlen($pass) < $minpass_len) 
{ 
die("User/password was not long enough!"); 
} 
$pass=md5($pass); 
$request = "INSERT INTO `users` ( `userid` , `username` , `password` , `email` , 
`biography`) 
VALUES ( 
'', '$user', '$pass', '$email', '$biography');"; 
$result = mysql_query($request); 
if($result){ 
echo "Registration was succesful"; 
} else { 
echo "Registration failed"; 
} 
?>
