I am recieving a fatal error trying to connect to my server/mysql. This is
my first attempt at connecting to a remote server, have been successful with
localhost (apache). I had the variation of not putting the hostname & others
into a variable, but that did not work either.
I have also genericised the username and password for this post. Host name
is correct.
Can anyone enlighted me as to what I am not doing correctly?
