SImple, look at the php.net manual for mysqli_ functions and start using it.

Your php version if >= 5.0.0 will support it.

dw11 No - PHP not Apache. do a phpinfo() in one of your pages to see what version of php you're running. You should see something like:

The php.net manual should be your first stop. It pretty much tells you what you need to know. Pritaeas has got an article in 'Code Snippets' too.
