Many people ask about MySQL, so here you go:



Codes:



$servername

This code is the server name. The default is localhost. If you don't know what to
change it to, leave it as the default.



$dbusername

This code is the MySQL username. If you are hosted by CPanel, you can go to MySQL databases and make one there, but if your not hosted by CPanel, use the username and the username of FTP.



$dbpassword

This code is the MySQL password. If you are hosted by CPanel, you will create a password when you are making a username, if your not hosted by CPanel, use the password of your FTP.



$dbname

This code is the MySQL database name. If you dont have a name, contact me, and ill set you one up.

What is MySQL?
MySQL is a database that allows you to install programs like phpMyChat, forums ect. Without MySQL habboxforum wouldnt exist!

Hope this is helpful

just wondering but what does this actaly teach people?
I mean you could use any varible in the connection code without making any diffence to it?
And there isnt actaly anything on connection? so im kind of unsure what this tells people "/ other than a few common varibles "/
