Shouldn't you say localhost instead This is what I do. If you
want to connect to a server not on your machine, you must have
extra right. Most ISPs won't do that for security reasons.

You should not send a password at all. Put your password in a
file at a safe location on your server (you can always protect it
with .htaccess), then let your program read this password and
send it to MySQL.
