CodingForums.com - PHP or die mysql error

Thanks in advanced for the help, anyways i'm coding a register script
but im not seeing the mysql_error message, the page when executed doesn't show the actual mysql error ( like it should), it just says mysql_error()

database/config.php

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php

$mysql_hostname = "localhost";

$mysql_user = "root";

$mysql_password = "";

$mysql_database = "test";

$db = mysql_connect($mysql_hostname, $mysql_user, $mysql_password)

or die("mysql_error()");

mysql_select_db($mysql_database, $db) or die("mysql_error()");

?>

Registration.php

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php

include("database/config.php");

if($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST")

{

// username and password sent from Form

$username=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username']);

$password=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['password']);

$password=md5($password); // Encrypted Password

$email=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['email']);

$date = date();







$sql="Insert into test (id, username, password, email, date ) values('','$username','$password','$email','$date');";

$result=mysql_query($sql);

echo "You have successfully registered, you may login now. ";

}

?>

<form action="registration.php" method="post">





Email: <input type="text" name="email"/>



Username: <input type="text" name="username"/>

<br />

Password: <input type="password" name="password"/>

<br/>

<input type="submit" value=" Submit "/>

<br />

</form>
