Using 'mysql_connect()' in php5

The good news is that my problems in getting Apache2 and MySQL to work
have now gone away. A full, clean install seems to have sorted it all
out. I've now re-installed my MySQL databases and the local web pages
and tried to view my 'photo-album' web page which is a home-grown
affair written in php and using the php-mysql routines. Unfortunately
it doesn't work! I get

Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() 
in /var/www/photo/dblib.inc on line 6

returned when I try to invoke the relevant page. I have installed
both the php5 and php5-mysql packages, and restarted Firefox.
Can anyone help?

p.s. Thanks to all who responded to my earlier problems. This is
a very helpful list!
