Because I am using MySql 5

*What is PHP's MySQL Extension?*

This is the original extension designed to allow you to develop PHP
applications that interact with a MySQL database. The mysql extension
provides a procedural interface and is intended for use only with MySQL
versions older than 4.1.3. This extension can be used with versions of
MySQL 4.1.3 or newer, but not all of the latest MySQL server features
will be available.

Note:

If you are using MySQL versions 4.1.3 or later it is *strongly*
recommended that you use the mysqli extension instead.

The mysql extension source code is located in the PHP extension
directory ext/mysql.

For further information on the mysql extension, see
http://www.php.net/manual/en/book.mysql.php.

*What is PHP's mysqli Extension?*

The mysqli extension, or as it is sometimes known, the MySQL improved
extension, was developed to take advantage of new features found in
MySQL systems versions 4.1.3 and newer. The mysqli extension is included
with PHP versions 5 and later.
