I am in the process of learning node.js and using mongoose for Mongodb.  I 
am following an example from a tutorial to connect to hosted mongodb.  I am 
getting the error message: 'database names cannot contain the character '.' 
    Here is my code:

// .............................................................
var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var Schema = mongoose.Schema;

module.exports.mongoose = mongoose;
module.exports.Schema = Schema;

// Connect to cloud database
var username = "myusername";
var password = "mypassword";
var address = ' @ds045147.mongolab.com:45147/mydatabasename';
connect();

// Connect to mongo
function connect() {
  var url = 'mongodb://' + username + ':' + password + address;
  mongoose.connect(url);
}

function disconnect() { mongoose.disconnect(); }

// 
...................................................................................

Any suggestions on what I may be doing wrong?  Thanks in advance for any 
help.

MN
