Definitely shouldn't be using the MySQL extension in php, it's deprecated and will be removed in the future (because security issues).

Better to use PDO_MySQL instead.

The database name goes in the mysql_select_db(), where it says 'csgo'

Also, you didn't give much info but there should be a config file or a pretty clear place to put your information in.
If not, there should at least be a call to mysql_connect() which is where you would put your user, pass, host, etc.
