mysql username and password

[sane993]

Hello,
I was wondering whether its possible not to have a username and password as I"m only using a localhost server on my mahcine. If not I'd like to do it properly so where do I place the password if its unsafe to place it in php.ini? Same goes for username.

If I dont need a username/password then what do I write in:
mysql_connect(localhost,$username,$password);?

If its on your computer
Go into PHPMyAdmin if you have it. If not search the web to download it.

Then goto the database mysql
then table user
It should say you can use
localhost,blank,blank
to work

i dont use phpmyadmin....i rather do my coding the old hardcore way 😃 neway I tried blank and it didn't work so i just used
$username = "";
$password = "";

and she worked. 😃
