I've never used mySQL or any PHP scripts before, so I expected it to be a challenge, but...

Filling in the form with what seems like it should be right, leads me to this.


Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Unknown MySQL server host '***' (2) in /***/htdocs/adoptables/inc/functions.php on line 13
Error connecting to MySQL

Asterisks just there to remove the information that seemed personal. So... I saw some other threads on here that looked like similar problems, but... Even though the advice given in those helped the posters, nothing's worked for me.

I get the feeling I'm missing something really obvious. Anyone want to help out here?

The only other thing I can think of is that function that calls the server, is typed incorrectly.

So you'll just have to wait for BMR777 to shed some lite on this.
