You are doing this wrong.

if (!mysql_query ($view, $con))
		{
			die ('Error Sir' . mysql_error());
		}

mysql_query() function's first argument should be a string(a SQL query).

Once you have queried the database using $view = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM bulletin ORDER BY pro_no DESC"); , you check the return value of mysql_query() to see if it executed successfully. It returns false on error. Hence
to check

if (!$view) {
    // error
}

Yes vishesh is correct. Try with vishesh suggestion or Replace your line from 8 to 13

$view = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM bulletin ORDER BY pro_no DESC");
 
if (!mysql_query ($view, $con))
{
die ('Error Sir' . mysql_error());
}

with

$view = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM bulletin ORDER BY pro_no DESC") or die ('Error Sir' . mysql_error());
