Typically, I set these up in a header file. like 'db.inc' will have all my database connection information: $SERVER='' $USER='' $PASSWORD='' $DBNAME='' etc... Then include that in your PHP file. I do this for peice of mind as then I am the *.inc non-readable in my apache httpd.conf file so no-one can just bring up that page to read it. See the apache manual for how to do that. HTH, but I'm sure it is one of many ways... -Brad > Say the server is mail.testserver.com > my login is: twostep+testserver.com > my password is: twostep > > Where would I make those declarations?
