Answer 1

You have to use this:

$mysqli=new mysqli("localhost","user","password") or die(".........");

if($mysqli->query("Create database if not exists MyDB")){

   "Failed creating new database: ".$mysqli->connect_errno();
    die();

}

$mysqli->select_db("MyDB");
$mysqli->close();

Answer 2

try something like this

$mysqli = new mysqli("localhost", "user", "password");

in this way you are connected to database

and put this query using mysqli Create Database database1
