Hello ncovil !

I am new to php mysql

Actually i have read A tutorial on nettuts
"http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/php/create-a-signup-form-with-email-confirmation/";

According i copy all source code & change some setting only in config.php file

then i copy all file to my website folder "http://www.makemycreative.in/source/index.php";

now it showing error like...


"I couldn't connect to your database, please make sure your info is correct!"

in config.php.. there is asking for

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"mysql_connect('localhost', 'root', 'root') or die("I couldn't connect to your database, please make sure your info is correct!");
mysql_select_db('email_signup') or die("I couldn't find the database table ($table) make sure it's spelt right!");"

I fill instead of above....these...

"mysql_connect('localhost', 'makemycr', 'samson01') or die("I couldn't connect to your database, please make sure your info is correct!");
mysql_select_db('user1') or die("I couldn't find the database table ($table) make sure it's spelt right!");"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I am not what to write instead of localhost.. i am very confused abt localhost..

rest of i know.. i think it's a problem of localhost...
