if (!$dbcheck) {
die(" Connection Test Script was unable to connect to MySQL server! ");
}else{
echo "Connection Test Script connected to your MySQL server successfully! ";
if (mysql_select_db($dbname)) {
echo " Connection to your database \"$dbname\" was also successful. ";
$result = mysql_list_tables($dbname);

$stufftoprint .= "Table: $row[0]\n ";
$i++;
}
echo " There are $i tables in your $dbname database ";
echo " Now check this list of tables with your nuke.sql file: $stufftoprint";
}else {
echo " But, the connection to your database \"$dbname\" has FAILED!";
}
}
mysql_free_result($result);
?>

i came up with this;

Connection Test Script connected to your MySQL server successfully!

Connection to your database was also successful.

There are 84 tables in your database

Now check this list of tables with your nuke.sql file:
