Issues Connecting databse to Chrome extension

I am trying to make a Chrome extension. Currently I have an AWS database running on MySQL workbench and I am trying to get it connected to the extension. My PHP file is simply just trying to connect to the database on the submit of an HTML form. I am following the videos (parts 1-4) form this link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dpLbADRh830
Right now I am using localhost as my server and on submit of the form, my extension says "This site can’t be reached localhost refused to connect." I have no clue where to go from here and this is honestly my first database experience so I apologize if this is a silly problem.
<?php
$name=$_POST['name'];
$email=$_POST['email'];
if(!isset($_POST['submit'])){
echo $email;
}
?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

<body>
<form action="http://localhost/db/tester_script.php" method="POST">
<input type="text" name="name" placeholder="name"><br>
<input type="text" name="email" placeholder="email"><br>
<input type="submit" value="submit">
</form>
</body>

You should first check the security group of your AWS database to make sure that your IP address is not being blocked

Thanks Jamie. I did do that and it's not.

Are you seeing any error messages in the development console other than the one you describe?
– Jamie_D

No, the console stays clean. When I open the script.php file in the browser with local host, it registers so I know local host is running fine. The only error is the one that pops up when I try to submit the form in the chrome extension. Sorry this doesn't help much. I just have no clue what is going wrong. I followed the video tutorial exactly.

Can you post any source code? It may help in determining the issue .... (Do not reveal any connection usernames/passwords)
