Can php files be uploaded into windows domain (web host)

[genzedu777]

Hi,

 

I have a question.

 

Can I actually use windows hosting on .php files, or .php files are only suitable to linux domain?

 

Currently I am practicing some php files in the windows domain and I have received a message stated 'no database selected'. However I have definitely created the database, are there any other reasons which may cause this problem? Thanks

 

<?php

echo '<select name="race" id="race">

<option value="">--Please select one--</option>';

 

$dbc = mysql_connect(111', '111', '111', '111')

or die(mysql_error());

$query = ("SELECT * FROM race ORDER BY race_id ASC");

$sql = mysql_query($query, $dbc)

or die(mysql_error());

 

while($data = mysql_fetch_array($sql)) {

echo'<option value="'.$data['race_id'].'">'.$data['race_name'].'</option>';

}

echo '</select><br/>';

 

mysql_close($dbc); ?>

Yes, you can use PHP anywhere it's been installed. Yes, PHP can be installed on Windows.

 

After connecting you need to select a database to use.
