So this is the error message:
PHP Deprecated: mysql_connect(): The mysql extension is deprecated and will be removed in the future: use mysqli or PDO instead
This is the affected piece of code:
class wdClient {
var $dbLink; // The database link
var $prefix; // Table prefix
var $script; // The script running
/**
* Construct a new directory object.
*/
function wdClient() {
error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);
$this->prefix = WDDBPREFIX;
// Connect to the database
$this->dbLink = mysql_connect(WDDBHOST, WDDBUSER, WDDBPASSWD);
// Select the database
mysql_select_db(WDDBNAME, $this->dbLink) or die('Sorry, The site is currently unavailable!');
}
where WDDBPREFIX
, WDDBHOST
, WDDBUSER
, WDDBPASSWD
, WDDBNAME
are already defined in a config file.
I have tried simply using mysqli_connect
instead of mysql_connect
but it's not working.
