Hi all, I've recently installed A2T on my machine and have created a database using myphpadmin. Now I want to know if there may be a set of specific code that I need to connect a .php file to my database. The reason that I ask being that I'm aware that when databases are hosted on external servers then it is useful to find out how the hosting company configures their server and mysql. However because this is all being done locally....what it the required code to allow me to perform sql queries on the database?


Also another question regarding the database. I realise either the entire database or selected table can be exported in SQL format but how about uploading? I've been looking through the various options as a friend is wanting to look at a database that I've created but for the upload option it only ever gives the option of .html or .jpg I believe?

Many Thanks

Answer to your first question , yes the same , only variables like the hostname will differ

As for the second question it is just me or you said you want to upload a database in jpeg format ? usually formats are sql , cvs , xml , etc
