can

| <!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 //EN"> <html> <head>

| <body>
| <?php
| $dbServer='localhost';

| print "Connected Successfully<br>";
| mysql_select_db("$dbName") or die("Could not select database");
| print "Database selected successfully<br>";
| mysql_close($link);
| ?>

Vince,
Maybe add mysql_error() inside your die statment after trying to connect:
$link = mysql_connect("$dbServer", "$dbUser", "$dbPass") or die("Could not
connect" . mysql_error());
