Andrew:

Tried a few other things to connect with the database - removed the
username- in front of the $database="username-databaseName" for the
phpsqlsearch_dbinfo.php), I think I am getting closer. Please see my new
error message:

Page: http://www.vl360.com/phpsqlsearch_genxml.php

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Can't connect to local
MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) in
/hermes/bosweb/web036/b361/ipw.vl360com/public_html/phpsqlsearch_genxml.php
on line 15
Not connected : Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)

Line 15 is: 
// Opens a connection to a mySQL server
$connection=mysql_connect (localhost, $username, $password);

Any ideas are appreciated, I'm new at PHP and this tutorial will really help
me learn.

Map not changed:

Thanks in advance,
Colette

Of course, permissions of 770 may be the cause because the web server
(which usually runs in the World group) has no permissions at all. 775
would be more usual.
