I cannot connect to my database and I am unsure as to why.
Hear is the error message:

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'tx9271_admin'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in /home/tx9271/public_html/downfeed.com/config.php on line 5
I cannot connect to the database because: Access denied for user 'tx9271_admin'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

Here is the config.php file it is referring to:

<?php 
$dbname="tx9271_users";
$host="localhost";
$user="tx9271_admin";
$dbh=mysql_connect ($host,$user,"") or die ('I cannot connect to the database because: ' . mysql_error(). '');
mysql_select_db ("$dbname") or die('I cannot select the database because: ' . mysql_error());

?>

my webhost is hostgator.com. I created the database tx9271_users and created a user in that database called tx9271_admin. If anyone knows what is wrong I would greatly appreciate some help.

Thanks,
