Re: Remote MySQL connection via PHP file

Hi all, I've been searching around for a while, but cannot find a solution. For a project of mine, I need to keep the connection information to a MySQL server database on another server. <?php include "http://www.remoteserver.com/remote_file.php"; // Use variables $user and $pass somehow... ?> why do you need to do this, would it not be simpler for the db admin to give you a username and password for the database, or provide some sort of xml interface, on the remote server, to access the database.
