How the hell does anyne connect to MySql in Dreamweaver.
I have tried to do this on three different computers Win98, win2K and now I'm on WinXP Pro.
I'm getting nothing but errors. Every time I installed MySql from scratch and created a single table database. I used MyPhpAdmin to do this.
The MySQL is installed in the default directory c:MySQL.
I can create databases either at the comand prompt or through the PhpMyAdmin.
I created a new site in DWX and a single index.php page
In the DWX site deifintion for testing server it is set to local/network and is pointed to the root (c:\inetpub\wwwroot\)
When I click on the + in the Databases and type these parameters:
Connection Name: connHotel1
MySQL Server: localhost/
User Name: Mikhail
Password: Password
Database: I press select button and get this error: 2005 Unknown MySQL Server host 'http' (11001)
Would someone please help with this.

Have you installed MyODBC driver? you can download it from www.mysql.com . After you install it, you have to open your ODBC tool and add your database to user dsn, system dsn and file dsn.
