[PHP-DB] Connect to MySQL Database Using PHP

2004-02-28 Thread Paul Higgins
I currently connect to my database (MySQL) through PHP with the following 
lines:

$db = mysql_connect( 'host', 'userName', 'password');
mysql_select_db( database_name, $db);
The host, userName, and password are all hard coded into the PHP document.  
I would prefer not to do this.  How can I connect to the database without 
having my sensitive information hard coded into the PHP?

Thanks,

Paul

You can include a file with:

?php

$host = host;
$Username = username;
...
And then use: require(include.php); in alle php documents, and then use 
$host etc in the Connect-function.
