I have come to the realization that my host must be using an older version of PHP, because I used mysql_connect and it did the trick. Thanks everyone for your help!

Hah isnt it funny how that works. Glad you figured it out.
yea, sorry, i now feel that the thread was unnecessary, as it ended up being a stupid solution. The reason that took me so long was I thought register.com would be a big enough company to keep their software updated, so I overlooked that as a possible problem.
Met, you're an idiot for the most recent post. What version were they running? If you're just talking 4 vs. 5, a LOT of companies still use 4.
If you found a specific build of one that has errors in mysqli, then it's a bigger problem than just a company 'not keeping software updated.'
Needless pejorative.
Oh.. And do add that little check I gave.. On multiuser/multitasking/networked systems ALWAYS check and verify you actually got what you requested. Don't assume you'll get it. Check, check, double check.
How am I an idiot for assuming that companies would want to compete with other companies by updating something that is free software?Quote:
