mysql-extension is __deprecated and removed__ in php7. Unless you use some legacy code - __forget__ about `mysql`, otherwise see comment above. — u_mulder, Jun 13 '17 at 07:10

try to use mysqli_connect() instead of mysql_connect() statement. It is an improved version of mysql.

mysql functions have been removed in PHP7 XAMPP So, Please Use PDO Or My_Sqli To Avoid This.

PDO will work on 12 different database systems, where as MySQLi will only work with MySQL databases.

PDO: https://www.w3schools.com/php/php_mysql_connect.asp

MY_Sqli: https://www.w3schools.com/php/php_mysql_connect.asp

NOTE:

mysql_connect — Open a connection to a MySQL Server Warning This extension was deprecated in PHP 5.5.0, and it was removed in PHP 7.0.0. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extension should be used.
