Note Submitter: webmaster [at] thedemosite.co.uk ---- Just spent ages trying to work this out.... If you install MySQL 5 and specify an alternative port number from the default (3306) then NOTE you need to pass the port number to mysql_connect: $link = mysql_connect("localhost:3308",$username,$password) or die ("Unable to connect to MySQL server."); Still no need to pass port number if you use the default port number (3306) when installing MySQL 5. Hope it saves someone else time.
