If your connect.php is configured with localhost as the server, then all you would need to do is create a DB on your free hosting site, get the username and password for that DB, and change the user:pass details in the connect.php and the connection should work.

Okay but first i would need to import my database to the root of the web server is this correct

the submission procedure doesnt say anything about importing the database?

The submission document only covers submitting your code and URL for marking. It has nothing to do with importing/exporting your db to your online site.

Upload your code to the server.
Recreate the exact db on the server (you can either export and import, or recreate from scratch)
Change the login/password details in your connect.php file to details you received when you opened that account. Server mains localhost.

That should do it.

Except... why do you wait until 99????

I will be fishing in two hours from now sad smiley

You do not include the database name in the mysql_connect function.
Use mysql_select_db for that.

Just delete the ,"Name of my database is here" part.


Your $db variable should be the name of your database.

okay on the webserver everytime I try to import the database I get an DATABASE import error

DATABASE_IMPORT_ERROR-1383322861 DATABASE_IMPORT_ERROR-1383322861

Are you using phpMyAdmin to export / import your database ?


Here is a good tutorial if you need one -
