Have I got the correct $ user and $ host. The following code has been copied from PHP & MySql for Dummies (that's the level I'm at!). But when I type in "SHOW DATABASES" as the query I get "Page Not Found". The PHP file I am using is located in the C:Inetpub/wwwroot folder and I got the user name and password (not shown in the code) from the My ini tab in WinMySQLAdmin.
