SQL Query causing blank page

I've just got a basic query to delete the fields for a certain user, determined by a dropdown form on a previous page. I've tested the $_POST['Username'] with an echo and that is working fine, but as soon as I add the query it all goes blank, no error message or anything. Here the source:

PHP Code:
<?php 
// MySQL Connection Info
$server "localhost";                  // Server Name
$username "#";         // MySQL Username
$password "#";                        // MySQL Password
$dbname "w#";           // Database Name
 
 
// MySQL Connect String
$con mysql_connect("$server","$username","$password");

if (!
$con)
  {
  die(
'Could not connect: ' mysql_error());
  }
 
// Select the database
mysql_select_db("$dbname");

if (!
mysql_select_db)
  {
  die(
'Could not select database: ' mysql_error());
  }
  
$deleteuser $_POST['Username'];

echo 
'Hello ' $deleteuser;

$eraseuser mysql_query("DELETE FROM users WHERE Username = '" $deleteuser "'");
    if (!
$eraseuser) {
        die ( 
'Delete unsuccessful: ' mysql_error())
        };

?>

PS: If you spot any bad coding I can rectify please let me know, just starting to learn this stuff ;P
