Hi,
Can you please check the following:

<?php
$con = mysql_connect("localhost","sql-username","sql-password");
if (!$con)
  {
  die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
  }

// some code
?>

This works if everything else is correct...i.e, username and password.
Try and revert back if you have a problem
