There's been no indication that the older mysql_xxx() functions are
going to be deprecated. To do so would break millions of websites
around the world. It's going to be a long time before they do that.

mysqli_xxx() extensions are arguably "better", especially if you're into
OO techniques. But for plain old function calls, I also find
mysql_xxx() to work quite well.

Since you're starting out fresh, probably the mysqli_xxx() calls are
better; better yet would be to use the OO classes.
