I've just seen the postings related to database passwords. What I'm not sure about is how php is instructed to access a database through a mysql 'superuser'. I wish to set up a superuser so that it is only this user that can administer and drop etc, other databses and tables I have set up privileges, using GRANT on a single database, with a user and a password, but how is php instructed - if at all, that there is a superuser, and how does it bypass/access this?
