Can't connect to a mySQL DB

Hi everyone
I'm trying connecting to a mySQL DBm but I've some troubles.
The code is

<?php
echo "Connecting ... ";
$connection = mysql_connect("localhost", $usename, $password)
or die ("KO: " . mysql_error());
echo "OK";
....

When I execute, the php page just writes:
"Connecting ..."
and then the execution stops, without printing anything else.
The problem is not dipendent by the parameters, it happens the same
also if I write wrong parameters.

Can someone help me in order to fix the problem?

Tanks in advance for your replies.
