Hi William,
as your first time, probably is not a good idea to start connecting to a remote DB using a PHP script ...

To start to learn, probably the best is to create a little 'TEST' environment locally ...

... if you run on MAC, you can install MAMP (http://www.mamp.info/en/mamp/index.html), if you run on WIN you can use WAMP (http://www.wampserver.com/en/). In this way you have a complete environment (Apache, MySQL and ... PHP) running on your system and you can do all the test you like.

After ... you can start play with a remote server ... :-)

Hi Malte,

Thanks, but I don't get it ;-(
Do you mean I have to put the db_username and db_password etc. in a
.php file on my server.
But how do I connect? And how do I retrieve the data?

Like I said: it's my first time on database!

groeten,

William

Hi William,

best bet is to implement a piece of middleware (e.G. a PHP script) you can get 
the data from. Then the server does the connection to the mySQL database and 
you retrieve the data using a http request.

Hth,

Malte
