Really N00b Question...

pfgannon

Ok i dont know what i should put in here...

$host = "your.host.com usually localhost";//your mySQL server

any help would be appreciated.
Python maybe you would know the most about this since you've used vivehosting also
It would be even better if you could email me an answer
fourtone87@hotmail.com

becuase the school has DD blocked.
But i should be getting broadband this month

Python

i take it that your installing a script with something to do with a db right? then you should use:

localhost

daboss

That's only if the script is running on the same server that is hosting the database.

If not, you would need to specify out the actual host's name - e.g. www.host.com. In my experience, I've always left out the www.

Python

thats something which i will try later on. installing a script using the db from another server

just so i know how to do it

pfgannon
