[PHP-DB] hotlink MySQL
Is it possible to hotlink a MySQL database? my site location is different then my MySQL location. (or at least a site). Is it possible to use the database for both sites or should I set up the database at both locations? The reason for asking is that one of the locations doesn't provide MySQL DB's anymore (max number of DB's is limited) Pls let me know if this is possible, and if so, how.

It's possible as long as your database allows remote access. You just give the IP address of the mysql server in your mysql_connect() function. $link = mysql_connect(192.168.0.1,user,password); ---John Holmes... -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
