Question Solved

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.

Quote:
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?

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

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...

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.
