    Make sure on your queries you do mysql_query($query) or die('Error: '.mysql_error()); Otherwise when you have errors such as this, you have no idea why. You probably have no made a connection to the server if that isn't working, or it already exists.

    ? What error are you getting? You do have mysql_select_db() right? Not sure what "do you any code for it" means. It's simple "create database <name>".
