QuestionAccess MySql using php script from Android app.. Pin

Hello,

I have a super simple php script that runs successfully when I paste the url into a browser (windows, chrome).
(http://xxx.xxx.xxx/myscript.php)

My php code has values hardcoded in it and these values are successfully inserted into mySql database (running on a WAMP).
At this point EVERYTHING is hardcoded in the php.
I appreciate any help, I think I am missing something fundamental (new to android development).


Problem:
I can not access/run this same script from my andoroid app. Do I need to run it async? I simply have the below code in a function that is run when the button is clicked on the phone (using an emulator so phone displays app while I am in debug mode in Android.)

Clues:
It bombs out on the last line. Strangely debug (IOException) value is blank.
Manifest has:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />


*************Code Snippet
URL url;
HttpURLConnection connection = null;
url = new URL("http://xxx.xxx.xxx/myscript.php");
connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
connection.setReadTimeout(3000);
connection.setConnectTimeout(3000);
connection.setRequestMethod("POST");
connection.setDoInput(true);

connection.connect(); <---DIES HERE

************End Code
