Hi, im new to database things, and my book has the example of making my $connection = mysql_connect("localhost", "bla bla", "11111")
and thus, it doesnt explain how i get MySQL to work in my website... in the control panel in my website there is a link saying MySQL Database, and i click it, and there is a table and a query thingy which im confused about... But it doesnt tell me host name, so i look to <?phpinfo?> and designingonweb.com is my hostname, and i already know my user name and password, so i enter it, but it won't connect
My book is i think, outdated, so perhaps my coding is wrong, or perhaps i need to know the exact information... The book also tells me to open mysql in dos, and type:
insert into user (host, user, password) values ('localhost', 'sandman', password('tqkfkdl'));
anyway, i type that in then go to the bin again and type:
mysqladmin flush-privileges
i did that too, but how would i install mysql (user, pass, host) into my server online, do i need somekind of program that makes mysql work on my server??? SOMEBODY HELP ME!!
🙁
Thank you for your time, i greatly appreciate it. But please find me a solution :/ 🙁
