YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING !
I had my database already connected, but whenever I wanted to truly understand what the code meant I found that people usually just recycles code instead of understanding what it is about.
I understood everything clearly, now I can go on with more complicated things.
Thank you so much for this video, amazingly explained!!

.nice. Would you put the db code in a class normally or just keep it open in its own file like in your tuts and include it? thx

Can anyone tell me that what exactly setAttribute does. I have this piece of code "setAttribute(PDO::ERRMODE, ERRMODE_SILENT)" and per my knowledge prevails it must return the error code whereas in actual its actually giving me the whole error. Thanks.

How would you implement this with html? Eg creating a html webpage but wanting to connect it to a database so it actually shows the webpage and not just “connected”
