How to check for localhost

[jray214]

Is there a way to check for if I am running under my localhost or my production site? This way I don't have to worry about changing information when I am developing.

Thank you

Jim

Example:

Dev site

$server = "localhost";
$username = "root";
$password = "admin";
$database = "copswest";
$table = "vendor";

Prod site

$server = "mySite.com";
$username = "root";
$password = "admin";
$database = "copswest";
$table = "vendor";

don't use two connections, use the development code on your local machine [url]http://localhost,[/url] and the prod on www.website.com
