yeah - everything's fine! All the variables are being stored, but
they're not getting passed to mysql_connect() for some really strange
reason!
:-(
I've done a temporary fix - moved the entire database connection
function to a separate file, and required that from the first required
file (!), and it's working, but the original problem has still got me
confused!!!
