It's not absurd at all.
What is absurd is that you're coding without
checking for any error conditions :-)
As a rule of thumb, if a function returns a
success flag, check it. it'll immediately
cut out about 90% of all "weird" errors.

It looks like your sql query failed, so the result is invalid.
Assuming that this is really the whole script, then you're counting on
the mysql_db_query function to open a connection to the database "db"
using the default connection values which (according to the manual) are
host: localhost, u
Good day,
You get this message because the mysql_db_query statement failed, and that
your code didn't check to see that it did or not before proceeding to the
next statement.
And, this statement fails because you have not even connected to the
database yet.
