Re: [PHP-DB] Connect to MySql DB on diferent domain

[Jeffrey_N_Dyke]

instead up supplying 'localhost' in your mysql_connect() function just use
the full name of the server i.e mysql_connect(www.domain.com $user,
$pass)  you must ensure the port is open through the firewall, if
applicable, and that you have a user set up with that can access it from
another domain.

hope this helps.

Hi,

need to connect to a MySql database outside this domain,  I need to
append records in a database on a different domain. How can I do this?

I will apreciate  if  anyone give me some help or a simple example how
to do this?

Thanks
Manuel

Re: [PHP-DB] Connect to MySql DB on diferent domain

[leo g. divinagracia iii]

first, get a user account on that DB outside your domain.

then when making the connections, just use that on the mysql_connection ()
function...

should be no different that using LOCALHOST...  the trick is the user
account with the appropriate (and should be limited) rights...
