Sorry if this is a stupid question, but all the books/tutorials I have read are leaving me a bit confused about creating a MySQL database. My website is hosted, does that mean I have to have the host create my database for me? If not, how do I go about entering the command string to create it? Any help for a foolish newbie?
It would really depend on your host. I would recommend talking with their tech support. They will be able to inform you as to whether you should try and create your own, or if it is their job.
OK thanks, still waitin on them to get back to me =)
i don't know what host you have, but if there is a way yo get ahold of the mysql.exe on your server, it's quite easy, I'm lucky i hopt myown, but I just found out how to create tables and databases about an hour ago!
