so, from above (previous post), it looks like the errors youve shown are actually coming from mysql_query(). what is the result of this (using credentials from this post and [mycomputer.webaddress.com]) <?php if(!mysql_connect($host, $dusername, $dbpass)) { die(mysql_error()); } else { die('successful connection established'); } -nathan
