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.

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?

RE: lost on step 3
 

are you sure that host name you gave was to your MySQL sever? and not your FTP Server?

RE: lost on step 3
 

Strangely, the MySQL part of the webhost doesn't have a different server name. I've tried every possible variation of it, though, and still have nothing...

RE: lost on step 3
 

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.

ah...... I don't know why, but I tried it without a domain and it somehow worked. Sorry to trouble you, but still thanks for helping.
