Measure Twice. Cut Once. I've actually got some steps closer to figuring out the problem. It seems that the connection between PHP and MySQL was fine, it just refused a connection as root. If I create another user it connects via phpMyAdmin just fine. The thing now is figuring out either how to get it to connect as root (it currently keeps refusing root) or create another user with all the privileges of root so I can connect with that. As of yet I haven't been able to figure out either! Thanks, Ash http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk
