Mysql/php/dreamweaver

[kilen]

Please disregard this message below. I just figured out that "localhost" was all I needed to add for the MySQL server. Sorry for the posting.

 

-------------------------

 

I'm trying to setup my Dreamweaver MX to connect to a MySQL database that I have on TCH, and I don't know what to type for the MySQL server. Also, I have not transferred my domain name yet, so I'm using an IP address to access my webpages with my web browser. I cannot get the domain transferred until I get the site running correctly.

 

I'm following the instructions below from Macromedia (http://www.macromedia.com/support/dreamweaver/ts/documents/mysql_config.htm#userAccount). Could someone tell me what I should be typing for the bolded text below for MySQL Server?

 

Thanks so much for your help.

Create a MySQL database connection in Dreamweaver

Once the MySQL user account has been set up and the site has been defined you can connect to your MySQL database in Dreamweaver. Using the above settings, here are example settings for the MySQL Connection dialog box in Dreamweaver:

 

Connection Name: choose a name (e.g. connEmp)

MySQL Server: mysql1.****

User Name: dbuser

Password: myPassword

Database: enter the name of your database or click on the Select button to choose from a list of MySQL databases running on the server.
