I have a PHP program that runs on Apache and connects to MySQL. The network administrator told me that they will block HTTP and allow HTTPS, will that cause a problem with my application? The administrator will install the certificates, do I need to change the code? The database is hosted on the same server too.

Nothing needs to be changed in your code.

HTTPS is the Secure HyperText Transfer Protocol.
It only changes the way your webserver interacts with the browser.

Web Browser > Web Server > PHP > MySQL

If you are referring to connecting to your msyql server using SSL, see this recent thread - http://www.codingforums.com/showthread.php?t=116478
