When I try to connect to the database I recieve this error :

Warning: mysqli::__construct(): (HY000/1045): Access denied for user 'eyohan01'@'localhost' (using password: YES) in C:\xampp\htdocs\artgallery\connect.php on line 7 Connection failed: Access denied for user 'eyohan01'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

<?php
$connect=mysqli_connect("localhost","root","","")or die("we did not connect to the database");
mysqli_select_db($conn,"artgallery")or die("we did not select database");
?>

    With respect, this is a case where careful reading of the error message should point you in the right direction. Either your username is not registered as a MySQL user or the password you provided is incorrect. – O. Jones Apr 09 '19 at 15:32
