I am using phpmyadmin as a sql server and i'm hosting it remotely at http://www.xynta.com, is that okay or do i have to install mysql on my pc?If that host allows remote connections to the database, you should have no problems. However, if they don't, you will need to install MySQL on your computer. Most likely the host does not allow remote connections.
jiros Wrote:2. Is this the same way as the "register and login" story with php?=P I've never heard that story. Chances are that your host allows PHP scripts, so you can access the database locally (locally as in the same host has your MySQL data on it.) if you put your PHP scripts onto that host.
If your host doesn't allow remote connections to MySQL then you will have to install PHP on your computer as well.
