    can anyone please tell me about this

    <?php

    $dbhost = 'localhost';
    $dbuser = 'root';
    $dbpass = '1234';
    $dbname = 'sessions';

    mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die("Could not connect: ".mysql_error());
    mysql_select_db($dbname) or die(mysql_error());

    ?>

    You include that file using
    include('conf.php');

    in the script that needs it. You don't actually need to do anything to that file unless your username, password and/or database name are incorrect

    Pu the below codes in a file named db.php

    
<?php

$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbuser = 'root';
$dbpass = '1234';
$dbname = 'sessions';

mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die("Could not connect: ".mysql_error());
mysql_select_db($dbname) or die(mysql_error());

?>
    Code (markup):
    I guess your conf.php contains several settings.
    Now in your conf.php you can simply call this using the following line:
    include('db.php');

    If you have other fuctions on conf.php based on database, you should include the db.php on top portion.
