the table name, and I am unaware as to how to substitute the database with
place holders for example the database username is a000b_7158078_wiki

and i can not remove the "a000b_7158078" from the beginning in any way or
else it tells me it can not read the password, but other then that, if i
just leave the db username the way it is, then it gives me a database name
is too long error. which is unavoidable with the prefix database name set by
my host, and they can not change it, it is actually the servers name to
them.
